General Info

Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary is a 13,000 acre Preserve. The Sanctuary is open 7 days a week from 8:00am-3:00pm with last admission at 1:00 pm. Be sure to reserve your ticket online. Visitors will find a gentle, pristine wilderness that dates back more than 500 years. A 2.25 mile boardwalk meanders through pine flatwoods, wet prairie, around a marsh and finally into the largest old growth Bald Cypress forest in North America. These impressive trees, relatives of the redwood, tower 130 feet into the sky and have a girth of 25 feet. Their massive branches are draped with mosses, lichens, bromeliads and ferns. The forest is also home to alligators, otters, white-tailed deer and red-bellied turtles. A wide variety of wading birds, songbirds, raptors and the fabulous Painted Bunting can be seen here. Photo opportunities are available at every turn of the boardwalk trail.Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary is a 13,000 acre Preserve.
