2Kelly Park and Rock Springs Run State Reserve
Kelly Park is located less than half an hour out of Orlando in Central Florida. This historic Orange County nature reserve in Apopka includes 325 acres of verdant lagoons, wildlife, and lazy rivers perfect for tubing. It’s the perfect place for the entire family to go tubing.
It’s a little short, just three-quarters of a mile long, but there are several boardwalks along the way, so you can take a break and explore a bit before re-launching. Additionally, you can enjoy the rock springs, and go canoeing or kayaking down the eight-mile Rock Springs Run. It’s a great route for those interested in the local sub-tropical flora and fauna. In the summer, this place is open from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
