Ichetucknee Springs State Park, Natural spring state park in Fort White, United States.
The Ichetucknee River stretches for six miles through the 2,669-acre park, fed by eight major springs that maintain 72-degree Fahrenheit water temperature.
The state of Florida acquired the land from Loncala Phosphate Corporation in 1970, transforming former mining grounds into a protected natural area.
Native American tribes inhabited the area for thousands of years, with Spanish missionaries establishing Mission de San Martin de Timucua near Fig Springs.
The park provides facilities for tubing, kayaking, swimming, and hiking, with equipment rentals and launch points distributed along the river course.
The Blue Hole spring descends into an underwater cave system, reaching depths of 40 feet while maintaining exceptional water clarity throughout the year.
