Beschrijving

In Big Cypress National Preserve you can spend the whole day (or several days) exploring what the Everglades ecosystem and Big Cypress Swamp have to offer. Stop at either the Oasis Visitor Center or Big Cypress Swamp Welcome Center for a map and in-depth information. Approximately halfway through your drive across Big Cypress along Highway 41, Kirby Storter Boardwalk provides travelers with shaded picnic areas, a vault toilet and a non-strenuous one-mile round trip boardwalk trail that takes you from a sawgrass prairie habitat into a lovely cypress swamp, one of the deepest parts of the swamp. The Kirby Storter Boardwalk offers an excellent opportunity to explore a mature cypress strand without getting your feet wet. Along the way and at the a gator hole at the end of the trail you can get close views of waders, as well as warblers, woodpeckers, flycatchers and thrushes (including bluebirds).
