About

Potts Preserve is a 8500-acre property acquired for protection of the area's groundwater recharge, as well as important surface water features and wetland habitats. The preserve's wetlands play a role in both the Tsala Apopka Chain of Lakes and the Withlacoochee River systems, part of the Floridan aquifer's recharge/discharge system. Additionally, the site provides habitat to wildlife, including a small population of threatened Florida scrub-jays. Visitors can enjoy various activities such as birding, hiking, bicycling, equestrian, boating, canoeing-paddling, fishing, hunting, and camping. The preserve offers approximately 9 miles of multiuse trails for bicyclists, who are required to stay on designated or marked trails. The property is open to the public from 30 minutes prior to sunrise until 30 minutes after sunset only, unless otherwise authorized by the District per Chapter 40D-9 Florida Administrative Code.
