About Big Cypress National Preserve

Big Cypress National Preserve protects over 729,000 acres of subtropical swampland in southern Florida, forming a vital freshwater buffer for the western Everglades and the estuaries of the Ten Thousand Islands. Despite its name, the preserve takes its title not from the size of its trees but from the vast expanse of cypress landscape it safeguards — a mosaic of dwarf pond cypress, towering bald cypress strands, hardwood hammocks, mangrove thickets, wet prairies, and sandy pine islands.

The preserve is home to the endangered Florida panther, American alligators, black bears, white-tailed deer, and an extraordinary diversity of wading birds, including great blue herons, roseate spoonbills, and wood storks. Visitors explore by scenic drive, hiking trail, kayak, and boardwalk, with the Loop Road and Big Cypress Swamp Welcome Center offering accessible gateways into this remarkable wilderness.
