WITH REGRETS, THIS RACE HAS BEEN POSTPONED. STAY TUNED
One of Florida's first state parks, O'Leno State Park was first
developed by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s. The park is
located along the banks of the scenic Santa Fe River, a tributary of the
Suwannee River, and features sinkholes, hardwood hammocks, river swamps
and sandhills. As the river courses through the park, it disappears
underground and reemerges over three miles away in River Rise Preserve
State Park.
O’Leno State Park offers visitors the opportunity to unwind in a
natural setting. Visitors can enjoy a day of hiking or biking on the
park’s shaded trails. The Santa Fe River is a beautiful spot to launch a
canoe or try your hand at fishing along its banks. Pavilions are
located along the river’s edge, providing a serene backdrop for
picnicking and relaxing. The shady, full-facility campground is the
perfect place for a relaxing overnight stay. O’Leno State Park is
located on U.S. 441, six miles north of High Springs.
