Recreation on Wild Lands

Cypress Along River


Recharge in the great outdoors. Fish, hunt, paddle, hike, bike, horseback ride, and view wildlife in pristine, beautiful Florida wild lands.

More than 5 million acres of mostly undeveloped land, the largest wildlife management system in the country, offers remote getaways for outdoor lovers in every corner of the state.

Welcome to Florida's great, wild out-of-doors!

If you know in general where you want to go, you can "Explore by Location" to locate a nearby WMA.

Otherwise, "Explore by Activity" to find a hunting location or paddling, bicycle, or hiking trail that suits your needs. You'll be quickly linked to the details of recreation on individual WMAs, including habitats, hunting seasons, fees, and history.

To increase your enjoyment and understanding of wildlife, wildlife habitat, and how the FWC works to sustain them, you can order recreation guides, bird lists and other interpretive products on-line.

You can also visit our geocaching Web page to learn about geocaching FWC lands and FWC geocache permits and guidelines.
