Plenty of trails to explore and a nice visitor's center. If anyone in your group has difficulty walking, boardwalk trail by visitors center is short but still stunning.

Love the walking trails . Loads of wildlife to see. If it's a hot day take a bottle of water and watch out for those Gators

Lester

Good place to hike . But it is a swamp so very hot and humid. And lots of spiders to avoid on the less popular trails .

Erica Johnson

Great place to really experience the swamp without the touristy hype of the tours . Yes, there are plenty of alligators !

Amy Robertson
