Overview

Ocala National Forest is one of three National Forests in Florida. Spanning 385,000 acres, Ocala is the second largest National Forest in Florida. Exploring Ocala National Forest can be done in many ways such as hiking, boating, horseback, OHV, ATV, and street-legal vehicles. Ocala National Forest is great for anyone looking to hunt, camp, watch wildlife, visit a shooting range, or even see the Naval Bombing Range! National Forest Road 50 is a great scenic trail that runs the entire length east and west through Ocala National Forest. FR50 also connects to Hopkins Prairie Campground and Lake George hiking trail. FR50 will have a few high spots overlooking the forest. Anyone looking to park and unload ORV will also appreciate the Hopkins ORV right next to Hopkins Prairie lake!
