Lake Butler

A hidden gem among all the typical Disney schmultz, this nature preserve is a perfect, peaceful getaway. There are several miles of trail, some are closed because of flood conditions, and a couple sections of boardwalk planks. There is a great variety of terrain from sawgrass marshes to pine flatwoods, bay swamp and oak hammock. The Fallen Log Crossing and Osprey Overlook trails are the must see parts of the preserve. You might luck out and see an osprey or eagle, or even a gopher tortoise. It's just a magical slice of heaven here in Central Florida that makes you forget you are just a few miles from the craziness of Disney and Universal. #LocalSecrets #KidsFun #NatureWalk
