Cypress Strand Tramways

If you're looking to escape the noise and congestion of the typical tourist traps, but aren't ready to emmerse yourself into the extremes of the everglades, our Cypress Strand Tramways hiking expedition is the perfect choice! 

Along with your professional guide, this easy to moderate hiking trip follows several elevated limestone tramways through tranquil canopied cypress swamp.  There you'll learn about the history of the tramways while taking in the incredible scenery, flora and fauna it has to offer.

Wildlife encounters usually include alligators, wading birds, hawks and colorful butterflies, but could also include bobcat, owls, black bear, deer, snakes and the elusive florida panther.
