Lettuce Lake Conservation Park

 The park has a a 1.25-mile paved  trail, a .6 mile boardwalk and a 1.2 natural surface trail that loop through hardwood swamp, pine forest, and flood plain. The lake is part of the Hillsborough River and is named after the swamp lettuce that grows in a few areas. There's a small nature center with information on the animals and plants, and also the native people who lived here before Florida became a state. This is a very good place to see birds and other wildlife.

 

We walked/rolled along the paved trail and the boardwalk. They are both accessible but where they connect (at the You Are Here dot on the map) there's a short section of loose gravel. Most wheelchair users will need assistance or will need to backtrack. The boardwalk railing is a bit too high but the gaps allow views of the scenery. The nature center is accessible. 

 

We parked in the Cardinal lot and fit in one space by backing over the ground. Larger RVs can be parked lengthwise across the spaces. Park  28.0741, -82.37275
