Loxahatchee Slough Natural Area

Gateway to the Ocean-to-Lake trail — vast wetlands for serious hiking and birding.

Spanning over 13,000 acres, this is Palm Beach County's largest and most biologically diverse natural preserve. Acting as the headwaters for the Loxahatchee National Wild and Scenic River, it offers miles of multi-use trails for serious hiking, off-road biking, and equestrian riding, along with a dedicated 2-mile paddling trail for kayaks and canoes.
