Ichetucknee River Access Has Reopened

Great News: Ichetucknee River Access Has Reopened!

If you've been eagerly awaiting the chance to experience the stunning Ichetucknee Springs State Park, we have fantastic news! As of today, access to the Ichetucknee River from the park has officially reopened after a temporary closure for cleanup and restoration efforts.

The Cleanup Success

Following the back-to-back hurricanes, significant debris, including downed trees, had created hazards along the Ichetucknee River. Park officials and dedicated crews have worked tirelessly over the past few weeks to clear the river, ensuring it is safe and pristine for visitors once again.

What This Means for Visitors

Now that the river is open, all water-based activities can resume as usual! This includes:

  • Tubing and Paddling: Drift down the crystal-clear waters of the Ichetucknee and soak in the natural beauty.

  • Kayaking and Canoeing: Explore the serene and scenic landscapes of this beloved river.

 

The rest of the park remains open as well, so visitors can continue enjoying swimming in the Head Spring or Blue Hole Spring, hiking trails, picnic areas, and more.

Plan Your Visit Now

With the river restored and open for adventure, now is the perfect time to plan your visit to Ichetucknee Springs State Park. Whether you're looking for relaxation or an active outdoor experience, the park is ready to welcome you back.
