Everglades Walking Tour
Everglades, United States
Why Walk Everglades
The Everglades is a slow-moving river of grass stretching 60 miles wide and over 100 miles long across southern Florida. This UNESCO World Heritage Site and International Biosphere Reserve is the only place on Earth where alligators and crocodiles coexist. The park protects critical habitat for 36 threatened or endangered species, including the Florida panther and the West Indian manatee.

Walking Tip
Mosquitoes are extreme from May through November — visit in dry season and bring repellent regardless. Boardwalk trails keep you safely above alligator territory.
Best Time to Visit
December through April (dry season) when wildlife concentrates around shrinking water sources and mosquitoes are manageable.
