The
Hillsborough River is a great choice for canoeing and kayaking, and the section of the river inside the park includes several clusters of class II rapids, one of the few rivers in
Florida with rapids. Canoe kayak, and bike rentals are available from the park consessions.
One of the original eight
Florida state parks, Hillsborough River State Park was developed by the
Civilian Conservation Corp. and opened in
1938.
Consisting of 3,950 acres along the Hillsborough River in northwest
Hillsborough County, in proximity to the
Tampa Bay area makes it a popular destination for those wanting to get back to what Florida used to be. The park's seven miles of nature trails wander through hammocks of live oak, hickory, magnolia, and sabal palm trees.
