Coldwater Creek, FL

Coldwater Creek Trail (State Road 4 Bridge to 191 Bridge)

This 19-mile paddling trail is easy enough for beginners and several access sites allow paddlers to choose trips of varying distance. Because it is spring-fed, the shallow water is always pleasantly cool and makes for a perfect paddle for all ages. Flowing for nearly 20 miles through undeveloped land, it is very narrow in spots with a steep gradient. Depending on water levels, sandbars are suitable for camping. Obstructions could include cypress knees, logs, and wide gravel bars that extend into the stream from shorelines. - FDEP
