Overview

Forest Road 57 is located in southwest lower Ocala National Forest. FR57 is a relaxed drive through the forest on a well-maintained road, so visitors in any vehicle can take a stroll. Visitors will drive over water, go through hilly terrain, and helicopters may fly overhead from the nearby Ocala Camp Fire Control Center. Ocala National Forest is one of three National Forests in Florida. It spans 385,000 acres and is the second-largest National Forest in Florida. Exploring this area can be done in many ways, such as hiking, boating, horseback, OHV, ATV, and street-legal vehicles. Come hunt, camp, watch wildlife, visit a shooting range, or even see the Naval Bombing Range!
