Come To The Suwannee For A Day or A Week

Our knowledgeable staff can assist you with making your plans for a canoe or kayak getaway, which might include a stay in one of the campsites set up and maintained along the Suwannee Wilderness Trail. These great campsites provide nature-based recreation in the Suwannee River Basin. This is indeed "roughing it" at its best. Some of the completed campsites include screened in sleeping platforms with ceiling fans, outside grills for cooking, tables to eat your tasty fare. Sanitary facilities where you can take a warm shower are close at hand. Firepits for evenings around the campfire spinning yarns are part of these fabulous facilities. You will awaken ready for another day of on the river. The Suwannee River Wilderness Trail runs 169 miles from White Springs, Florida to the Gulf of Mexico and offers activities such as canoeing, camping, boating, hiking, biking, birding, and horseback riding. Creating a public/private Partnership in Florida The Wilderness Trail is a cooperative effort of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP); the Suwannee River Water Management District (SRWMD); and the counties, cities, and businesses of the Suwannee River Basin.

A system of hubs on the river are in place and spaced approximately a one-day paddle apart. Proposed "river camps" are under construction and will be complete in the near future. Packages are now available for a variety of venues along the river, from a half-day paddle to multiple day trips. Rustic cabins, primitive or developed camping areas, and private sector lodging are available at "hubs." If this sounds like the vacation you have been dreaming of, we want to help you make it come true. For more information on the Suwannee River Wilderness Trail, call 1.800.868.9914 or 386.397.1919
