East campground trails closed to horses and gators

Effective July 19, sections of the Whiterock trail system will be closed to horses and gator rentals. Due to the wet weather and saturated soils, trails east of the main campground have sustained erosion damage which may make them unsafe for horseback riders, and if used, will incur further damage. Hikers are allowed, but are advised to maintain caution.

Please check out the Trail Closure Map under Project Highlights on the homepage for more information. Repairs will be underway as soon as possible. Please monitor our website for further updates.
