Osceola National Forest is one of three National Forests in Florida. Spanning 266,000 acres Osceola is the smallest of Florida's National Forests. Exploring Osceola National Forest can be done in many ways such as hiking, ATVs, horseback, and street-legal vehicles. Ocala National Forest is great for anyone looking to hunt, camp, watch wildlife, or visit the Lewis D. Whitaker shooting range!
National Forest Road 276 is a trail that will take explorers through the east side of Osceola National Forest. While on FR276 drivers can expect typical swamp conditions as the trail goes directly through it! During the dry season, the trail is more relaxed with a scenic route. However, during wet seasons drivers can expect a completely different experience as the trail will be underwater in many areas!

Starting at the intersection of County Road 125 and County Road 127, take CR-125 north for almost 1.5 miles. On the left\east side, there will be a dirt road with a brown 202 roadsign about 20' off CR-125. Follow FR202 for almost 4.5 miles and on the left, there will be an intersection for FR276. The trail starts here.
FR276 was dry as rainfall has been lacking so far in 2020. However, you can see plenty of areas where water will start creeping over the trail in the near future. The pond area is a nice, open area that would be a great place to relax.
