I walk here almost daily, the tranquility and peacefulness awakens something in me. It's crawling with unseen wildlife which makes it even extra special. Once in a while you might catch a glimpse of an animal, but they often stay out of your way. Give then plenty of space and respect them.

Absolutely magnificent place, full of scenery and life. The place is very quiet and tranquil and you feel at complete peace. Perfect for a getaway weekend after a stressful week. I also signed up for the kayak tour. I was nervous because I had never gone kayaking before but it was really fun and exciting.

We love canoeing along the Econ River. There are several canoe outposts. We usually use the one on off Snow Hill Rd. in Chuluota.

12 mile canoe trip was tough the 2nd day. The wind blew us backward despite paddling with the current. A bear and boar visited our campsite on the river in the middle of the night.

Yes, there are bluffs in Central Florida, and one place to find them is along the Econlockhatchee River- it just depends how high or low the Econ flows that day. Equine trails, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, and biking. Camp along the river banks, take a day hike with your dog. Discover some wild blueberry bushes, oak scrub, saw palmetto, bromeliads and orchids growing in the trees. Alligators, sandhill cranes, bears, coyotes, meadowlarks, you never know what you'll discover in this lush river basin. Little Big Econ State Forest - don't miss it.

The Econ is a great place to hang with friends. We go to the river all the time in the summer and just have a great time! The only thing I would say, is be careful for gators. Because it is Florida and there are a lot of them in this river... Other than that its chill vibes and if you can find a rope swing I suggest you do that.

I wanted to do something nice and relaxing before heading back home, and I'm glad I came to this park. There's so much to do, and it's absolutely gorgeous. There were playgrounds for kids, nice trails for dogs (the even had poop bags to offer!), and it's just such a little gem of a place.

I took my dog, Shelly, here over the weekend to see if it was dog friendly. They had waste bags and garbage bags, along with water fountains dotting the trails. They were clean and free of trash too!

I decided to go a trip with my extended family to this park and loved every bit of it. Not only are there a bunch of attractions for younger kids like slides and swings but the scenery is enough to keep older people attracted. Overall, the Econlockhatchee River is worth a visit for anyone going on a trip to Orlando.

A group of friends and I visited this park last week to see what they had to offer. The gorgeous scenery and wonderful playground kept us entertained for hours!

Hello. Is there a fee to just enter the park and walk around?
