| The Chassahowitzka River is clear, shallow, and spring fed and wild. |
The Chassahowitzka River runs from the head springs to the Gulf of Mexico through state preserve and National

most unspoiled rivers. Trip departs the Chassahowitzka River Campground and follows the river with the opportunity
to explore sinks and springs on the run down and back. Manatees in summer, avian and aquatic life can be observed
year round. Best paddled on weekdays to avoid crowds.
