Lake Louisa State Park


Lake Louisa State Park is the first park we visited when moving to Central Florida. It offers a variety of things to do like hiking, biking (hiking trails and paved road), horseback riding, boating, canoeing, camping (primitive and cabins), grilling, fishing, and swimming. It is well maintained and the trails aren't too difficult. The boardwalk area has bathrooms and a playground and hosts events occasionally. And it's Fido-friendly (on a leash, of course)!

It is well worth the $2-5 entrance fee. Open 8AM to sundown, 365 days a year.

Park details

" The park is home to 11 distinct natural plant communities and lies within the eastern most boundary of the Green Swamp (Area of Critical State Concern) and the northern most boundary of the Lake Wales Ridge. The presence of white-tail deer, bobcat, fox squirrel, raccoon, gopher tortoise, bald eagle, osprey and cypress fringed lakes makes nature study a great pastime. The park is located on US Highway 27, seven miles south of State Road 50 in Clermont."
