Travel guide to Everglades National Park

The Everglades is a river, ie River Glade - glade means natural prairie or open grassy place in a forest, river was changed to ever that later became Everglades. This river of grass (mainly sawgrass) is subtropical wetlands and is naturally maintained by fire (mostly from lightning) and water (mostly by flooding).

It is located in the southern region of Florida and is a 45-minute drive from central Miami. It starts in Orlando, flowing until it meets the vast shallow waters of Lake Okeechobee, once leaving the lake it forms a slow moving river that empties into Florida Bay. The river is 60 miles at is widest point and 100 miles long.

It costs as little as $10 to enter the National Park, and it is best to make a couple of trips - one to do the tourist thing and the other to maybe explore on foot and get a little closer to nature.

Many animals can be sighted here including: alligators, iguanas, wild pigs, toads, turtles, manatees, birds and many more. [edit text]  [editors]
