Green Swamp Youth Campers Albums and Helpful Tips
FL Caverns Album

These are photos from our trip to Florida Caverns.  Of course, there was a lot of driving.  We enjoyed going in the caverns, as well as the camping and the fascinating trails.  The musical selection is Dream Weaver  which seems like an appropriate title for an album of an otherworldly type place.  Also, we are dreaming about future trips to interesting places.  Our next trip is to Hillsborough River State Park.

We highly recommend a visit to this beautiful state park in Florida. It is unique. There are no other Florida Parks with large above water caverns like this one. Above ground is also very nice. The campsites are quite nice, and can be reserved through Reserve America.

Walkway to the Visitor Center.

Water dripping through the cave leaves interesting deposits.

This was one of the original Florida State Parks. During the depression, men were given jobs building the facilities and creating walkways in the canverns. Sometimes they had to excavate the floors so that visitors would be able to stand.
