Safety and Outdoor Ethics

Our commitment is to provide a safe environment for forest users. We want you to have a positive experience while enjoying the recreational opportunities of your National Forests in Florida.

Our rules and regulations, orders and other important information posted in or near recreation sites, trail heads and forest boundaries are for your safety and protection. We ask that you take the time to read the information and abide by the rules to make your visit a pleasant one.

In this section of our website, we provide information on possible hazards you might encounter and how to handle them. It's worth a read before you head outdoors into the National Forests, especially on your first visit!
