WINTER GARDEN RECREATION

Fishing

Lake Apopka plays host every weekend to many local fisherman who take in the beauty of her glassy surface and pluck the game from her lapping waters. A scenic lake for shore fishing, bird watching, boat fishing, or even just watching a sunset. Next to the people, Lake Apopka is one of the best natural resources that Winter Garden can attribute to its name. Come out and see the lake that our ancestors fished on to feed their families, and learn about her history while you partake in her beauty. Winter Garden, FL 34787 Recreation Fishing

West Orange Trail

Historic downtown Winter Garden has preserved the history and tradition of the original founding strip. Walking through the city you will find brick paved roads lined with 1920's and 30's era buildings still in occupation. The railroad, which was once used to transport citrus from the city, has been converted into one of the largest pedestrian/bike paths, known as the West Orange Trail. Upwards of 40,000 people walk along the 19 paved miles of the trail each year, which stretches from Apopka through Winter Garden to Oakland. The trail features a butterfly garden, covered bridges and views of scenic Lake Apopka. It is open to walkers, joggers, bikes, skateboards, rollerblades, horses, and even little red wagons.

Lake Apopka

Once a proud fishing destination, the mighty Lake Apopka has become more of a place for viewing local wildlife and the beautiful lakeside park facilities. Citrus production, a major part of the local history, has grown since the late 1800's. As the city produced and processed growing quantities of citrus, the refuse given off by citrus processing plants began reach unprecedented levels. During the 1960's the lake was irreparably damaged by the dumping of sewage, as well as by-products washed out of farms situated around the lake. Today, game fish populations have rebounded somewhat, but they are nowhere near the numbers that once flourished in this proud body of water. The lake does feature a public boat ramp as well as picnic areas. Winter Garden, FL 34787 Lake Apopka
