Geocache Description:

This cache was placed to get you to hike along the River Nature Trail which runs parallel to the Ochlocknee River.  The trail head is located near the restrooms.

The view is spectacular and early in the morning so very tranquil.  I saw several deer as I hiked along to place this cache.  The cache is located slightly off the trail.

Please replace the cache like you found it - wedged between some logs.


REMEMBER!!! You HAVE to sign the log in order to claim the smiley. ALWAYS have a pen with you!!!

Welcome to Ochlockonee River State Park

This jewel of a park is a great place to get away for a weekend or a weeklong vacation. Picnic facilities and a swimming area are located near the scenic point where the Ochlockonee and Dead rivers intersect. Ochlockonee, which means "yellow waters," is a mix of brackish, tidal surge, and fresh water. Pristine and deep, the river empties into the Gulf of Mexico. Trails allow visitors to explore the park and see the diverse wildlife, including the red-cockaded woodpecker, and natural communities such as pine flatwoods and oak thickets. A boat ramp provides easy access to the river. Both freshwater and saltwater fish inhabit the waters around the park, including largemouth bass, bream, catfish and speckled perch. For overnight visitors, there are full-facility campsites with access to restrooms and showers. Youth group camping is also available.

Admission is $4/per car of 8. For more information call the ranger at (850) 962-2771.
