Loop
Road
Three
quarters of the way between Miami and Naples,in the Big Cypress swamp,
take a turn down Loop Road and experience the natural Florida. This
twenty five mile scenic drive will show you Cypress trees, alligators,
egrets, and herons, among with much other flora and fauna.
Traffic
will not be a problem, most of the time if you want to get a better
look at something just stop the car and take a look. Just make sure
to shut the car off and listen to the woods, the wind in the trees
and the wildlife moving in the water. The road is not paved, but it
is a state road and it is maintained. A four wheel drive vehicle is
not necessary, but I would still not take a low clearance vehicle
here.
If
you go, pack a lunch, bring some mosquito repellent, and your
camera. There are side trips you can take here, some will require you
to get your feet wet, so dig in and have your swamp adventure.
