Orange Trail -

Follow the historic Suwannee Canal, which was dug in an attempt to drain the swamp in the late 1800s. Canal Run Shelter is a 10-mile paddle from the Suwannee Canal Recreation Area (east entrance). Past Canal Run Shelter are five miles of narrow, winding trail leading to Billy’s Island. Follow Billy’s Lake for 2 miles to Stephen C. Foster State Park. Low water levels between Canal Run and Billy’s Island can mean navigating stumps, peat blow-ups, and encroaching vegetation.
