Description

This is an easy hike on a loop trail within Silver Springs State Park. The sinkhole is nothing more than a very old depression that nature has reclaimed. It is hard to see unless you know what to look for. We also saw lots of indications of wild boar in the area, so be careful on your hike.

Flora & Fauna

We saw lots of turkey and deer, along with areas where wild boar had been rooting around.
