Get off the beaten path in between the rides!

Had enough with Mickey already? Desperate to work off that newly acquired Butterbeer gut? Happily, the great outdoors are as abundant in Orlando as theme park rides – and it costs a whole lot less to play. From world-class natural springs and canoe runs to all-day hikes and leisurely garden walks, you'll find it all within a short drive of your resort. Next time you're in town, take a break from Orlando's man-made marvels and experience Central Florida as it was before Uncle Walt and his squeaky-voiced pals arrived on the scene.
