Anhinga Trail

A half-mile boardwalk along a man-made canal with striking views.

Reviewed By 646lorit - Dawsonville, United States

We visited in late January during the dry season, and were able to watch up-close the reptiles and birds that dominate the everglades. Because the Anhinga Trail wanders through an area that is filled with water year-round, it is actually an oasis with a high concentration of wildlife during the dry winter months. The trail starts at the Royal Palms visitor center and winds through the glades via well maintained boardwalks and paved walkways. We saw alligators sunning right beside the sidewalk. We saw a cormarant catch a fish, and then have it stolen by a great blue heron. We saw turtles, anhingas, and so much more. Helpful hint: take the free ranger-led walk to learn so much about the everglades ecosystem and see even more animals thanks to the many eyes of the group looking. The ranger pointed out a red shouldered hawk in a tree directly overhead that I would have missed because I was looking at the alligators. This trail is not to be missed!

Shark Valley

Located in the Everglades, this trail is a great way to explore the Florida landscape.

Reviewed By JSchill - Johns Creek, United States

Great tour! Brought my 82 year old dad who has been to many, many National Parks with us through the years. Tram tour is a wonderful way to explore the park without a lot of walking - guides are quick to point out birds of interest, alligators, snakes, tracks and much more. They are aware of those trying to photograph the wildlife and offer plenty of time for that. There is a :20 stop at the tower which is well worth the walk up. Rangers were extremely knowledge on all the creatures and eco-system of the park. Thankfully FL and the Army Corp of Engineers are making progress protecting this area for years to come. Highly recommend the park and the Shark Valley Tram tour - you will see lots of alligators! ???? Enjoy!

Pa-hay-okee Trail

Boardwalk trail through the "watery grass".

Reviewed By ananda6 - Springfield, United States

We stopped here as we left the park. It is only about .2 miles and the vista is breathtaking. There are no bathrooms. The walk is on a boardwalk that is easy to traverse. My 11 year old was unimpressed but I think that was because he was exhausted from kayaking earlier in the day.
