Richloam - Porter Gap Road

Richloam Wildlife Management Area spans 58,000 acres, crossing into Hernando, Pasco, Sumter, and Lake counties. Richloam is located in a swamp and is full of outdoor activities such as hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, and horseback riding! Swamps offer wildlife plenty of food and water for wildlife so visitors can expect to see various animals from deer, hogs, gators, birds, and plenty of insects. Porter Gap Road is located in the northwest Richloam Wildlife Management Area. The trail has a slight attitude problem as it starts off nicely with limestone as the road. As travelers continue north on the trail, Porter Gap Road changes and becomes more muddy and wet, resembling more of a swamp. Drivers will have to cross multiple water holes with slippery mud for footing. There's plenty of fun on Porter Gap Road as it will tempt drivers to look at the scenery while randomly throwing potholes at vehicles. Drivers will need to stay focused!
