About this campground

Florida Trail Primitive Camping

Florida Trail primitive camping offers both established backcountry campsites and dispersed options along its 1,500-mile route. No reservations are needed, but a free permit may be required in certain wildlife management areas or during hunting season. Camping is generally free. Amenities are minimal—most sites have no toilets (some pit toilets at designated spots), no potable water (filtering from natural sources required), and no fire rings or picnic tables. RV access and hookups are not available. The experience is remote and rugged, with scenery ranging from hardwood forests to swamplands. Best visited in cooler, drier months (November–March). Nearby attractions include Ocala National Forest and Big Cypress.
