OCALA/MARION COUNTY
Exploring comes naturally to Marion County. In Silver Springs State Park, for example, you’ll uncover some of Florida’s wildest ziplining and adorable manatees in the wild.
Any way you like to explore is just fine, be it by glass-bottom boat, hiking, biking, paddling, snorkelling, ziplining or even diving. Ocala is also the “Horse Capital of the World ®,” and with over 600 horse farms and endless equestrian experiences, it doesn’t disappoint. Six Kentucky Derby winners have been raised here, but even if you’ve no experience, there are horseback-riding adventures to suit. Or, you could simply explore the colourful Painted Horse Trail.
