The Lake Apopka Wildlife Drive is an 11-mile, one-way gravel and dirt road through a 20,000-acre restored wetland on the north shore of Florida's fourth-largest lake. The drive has a strict 10 mph speed limit and typically takes between 1.5 to 3 hours to complete. Visitors commonly observe large numbers of American alligators sunning along the banks or crossing the road, with over 360 recorded bird species, including herons, egrets, ospreys, and bald eagles. Other potential wildlife sightings include river otters, turtles, bobcats, and armadillos.

The route features designated pull-outs for stopping and photography, as the road is often too narrow for two vehicles to pass. Key landmarks include a historic pump house, and an optional audio tour is available via QR codes at various stops to explain the area's transition from former agricultural "muck farms" back to a natural wetland.

The tour will end at Magnolia Park.
