West Orange Trail

Reviewed By exploreforfun

We parked at Kilarney Station, rented a bike, and cycled this paved trail through lovely residential areas, scenic Winter Garden, and on to the Luca Trail that brings you to Newton Park at Lake Apopka where you can walk the pier and, if lucky, watch the crafty alligator stalk birds. There are washrooms there, and lovely restaurants of all kinds in Winter Garden. Visit the Train Museum.

Lake Apopka Wildlife Trail

Reviewed By DisneyDarwin - Spring, United States

The folks who imagined this place were true visionaries --- birds, birds and more birds. So many species and so many individual birds. The layout makes it easy, just drive and take your time and enjoy the wildlife. We saw mostly shore and water birds, but there were a couple of elevated spots that were fully of warblers, wrens, sparrows and such. This is a most worthy destination.

Hutchinson Farm Winery

Reviewed By jlw0lf - Huntsville, United States

We spent a wonderful afternoon with John H. at the wine tasting. He educated us about the grapes that will grow in FL soils and the efforts underway to develop hybrids. He also explained about their efforts to blend various wines and create their brand. His stories were entertaining and it was obvious he loves what he does. they also shipped our purchases so we didn't have to try to figure out how to get them onto the airplane with us. This was without a doubt, the most enjoyable wine tasting we've ever experienced.
