Welcome to William Beardall Tosohatchee State Reserve

Alternating cycles of fire and flood have created an extensive mosaic of freshwater marshes, swamps, pine flatwoods, and hardwood hammocks in this reserve, which borders 19 miles of the St. Johns River. The reserve's diverse habitat supports a wide variety of wildlife including white-tailed deer, bobcats, fox squirrels, bald eagles, gray foxes, turkeys, hawks, owls, and many species of songbirds. Visitors can enjoy wildlife viewing and nature study while bicycling, hiking, or horseback riding on miles of trails. Fishing is another popular activity. Regulated hunting is allowed during the scheduled hunting season with a special permit from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.

Primitive camping is available for organized youth groups, equestrians, and hikers. Reservations must be made at least two weeks in advance by calling the reserve. Located east of Orlando south of State Road 50 on the west bank of the St. Johns River.

Florida state parks are open from 8 a.m. until sundown 365 days a year.
