Highlands Hammock State Park
One of Florida´s oldest parks, opening to the public in 1931, this park was established when local citizens came together to
promote the hammock as a candidate for national park status. During the Great Depression, just prior to World War II, the Civilian
Conservation Corps (CCC) developed additional park facilities and the beginnings of a botanical garden. Many visitors enjoy
bicycling the scenic 3-mile loop drive or hiking along the park´s nine trails. An elevated boardwalk traverses an old-growth
cypress swamp. For equestrians, there is an 11-mile, day-use trail. Picnicking is another popular activity as are ranger-guided
tours of the park. Highlands Hammock offers a full-facility campground, as well as a youth/group tent campground. A full-service
restaurant is located on the park grounds. For schedule and catering information, call (863) 385-7025. A recreation hall is
available for rental, as are several picnic pavilions. A museum showcasing the history of the CCC is open 9:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.
Located on County Road 634, four miles west of Sebring.
