Besides the nature walk through the board walk where we saw LOTS of wildlife (woodpeckers, baby alligators, turtles, ospreys and more) and beautiful cypress trees, you can also rent kayaks. This place is dog friendly. There are even baggies for people to pick up after their pets. I recommend wearing closed shoes if you want to walk the full trail. The board walk ends in a dirt path which loops around, but is not ideal terrain for sandals. However, walking to the end of the boardwalk and back again is just as fun (that's what we did ;) ) The park hours are sunrise to sunset but the board walk opens at 7:30am. Honestly this is a must see.

The trails we chose were well shaded and we loved following the stream. Lake Albert is more of a pond (at least when we were here), but still enjoyed walking around it. We were here a bit later in the afternoon, so didn't venture too far, but loved the areas of trails we did walk and definitely want to return! The trails are easy to follow and not very difficult. You might encounter some tree roots here and there, but nothing too difficult or strenuous. Great place to get some exercise in and just enjoy nature.

It's adorable, located on a small spit of land at the Port of Mount Dora next to the boat launches. The lighthouse was completed in 1988 and stands 35 feet tall. It is built from brick. There is free parking here and a few benches where you can sit by the water and watch the kayakers or jet skiiers. [Review 1029 of 2024 - 1905 in Florida - 22057 overall]
