Lake Louisa State Park, Florida state park in Lake County, United States
Lake Louisa State Park is a protected area featuring multiple lakes, cypress forests, and rolling terrain in central Florida. The landscape is crisscrossed by trails that pass through different types of woodland and water habitats.
The land was acquired by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection in 1973 and opened to the public in 1977. This early action helped protect the region's natural wetlands from development.
This place forms part of a larger natural network that supports wildlife adapted to wetlands and forests. Visitors often notice birds and animals that depend on the lakes and swamps to survive.
The park has two main entrances, one along U.S. 27 and another on Lake Nellie Road that serves equestrian trails. Come prepared for varied terrain and conditions that can shift with the seasons.
The park connects six different lakes through a complex water system linked to the Palatlakaha River. These interconnected waterways reveal how water moves naturally through the landscape and shapes the land.
