HIGLANDS COUNTY FLORIDA

The Heart of Florida... Highlands County. Here in the center of the Sunshine State, you'll find crystal clear lakes for fishing, boating, skiing and sailing, and more than a dozen golf courses. Our gently rolling hills, orange groves and charming small towns make this a relaxing country getaway - and our central location provides easy access to Florida's best attractions without the hustle and high prices of the major tourist areas. It's the best of both worlds - within two hours of most major attractions yet removed enough for that get-away-from-it-all feeling. Come discover Highlands County for yourself!

Fun Things to Do
Sun-kissed days in Highlands County beg visitors to picnic in the park. Admire our ecology. Cast a line in one of our seemingly endless array of lakes. Play a round of golf, or if you prefer a faster pace, swing over to the speedway. If the need for speed still nags you, quench it on an airboat tour.

Duck indoors for a walk through one of our museums or historical sites. Antiques, art and ambience await, alluring visitors with the Old Florida charm of Highlands County.

Parks

Home to a park system that wows with outdoor wonders, Highlands County naturally allures visitors. Otters, alligators and deer take shelter in our hardwood forests, pine flatwoods and cypress swamps, giving visitors a glimpse of wildlife along our nature trails. Boat ramps, fishing piers and swim centers provide easy access to our waterways from public parks. You'll also find playgrounds, cycling paths and plenty of room for picnics within Highlands County parks.
