Inglis Dam & Island Recreation Area is a part of the Cross Florida Greenway. The island has a 2.3 mile long 12 foot wide paved multi-use trail suitable for hiking, bicycling or rollerblading. There are an additional 7.6 miles of natural surface trails. Close to the main parking area entrance, there is a Grey portable and a picnic shelter off to the right. There is no drinking water available. You can find parking closer to the Dam where you cross onto the island. The area is open from 8am until sunset daily. Dogs on a leash are allowed.

The caches are placed along the paved trail, with some close to the trail and others a little bit away. There was no bushwhacking done while placing these caches. Remember this is Florida and there are things that will bump, tangle, trip, cut, scratch, poke, bite, sting and cause a rash or infection. Remember your bug spray, sun screen, snacks and most important, something to stay hydrated. The cell service seamed reliable in this area. There are a few benches along the way and a table and trash container at the end of the trail.
