About Ponce de Leon Springs State Park

Ponce de Leon Springs State Recreation Area is a Florida State Park in Holmes County, Florida, United States, located in the town of Ponce de Leon. The initial acquisition of the park on September 4, 1970, used funds from the Land Acquisition Trust Fund for the stated purpose of developing, operating, and maintaining the property. The plan was to develop the park for outdoor recreation, historic conservation, and to offer abundant opportunities for nature appreciation and wildlife viewing. Today, it grants park-goers the opportunities to swim in the spring and hike along the park's nature trails.
