Kirby Storter Roadside Park

Very nice place, unfortunately it was quite short and too close to the road, the noise from the cars will make it difficult for other animals or bird to get closer. There is room for make it better hopefully they do. The one issue at least when I went it was full of grasshoppers.

Boardwalk is very pretty, but only 0.3 miles one way.

Beautiful surroundings, quiet and idyllic. The scenery was beautiful, saw fish, turtles, lots of birds and a few sounds we thought may have been bigger mammals. The walk is perfect for those who want to experience nature without going too far. Park up and head for a wander. The light just before sunset was amazing.

Great boardwalk with abundant wildlife. We saw fish, turtles, a lot of birds and cool forestry. I would bring mosquito spray and sun screen - only part of the trail is shaded and those parts are in mosquito heaven.

Kirby Storter was an unexpectedly wonderful stop big Cypress preserve. The boardwalk starts at being very unassuming, but in the middle of the trail, you encounter a cypress swamp with very large cypress trees. That is so impressive. the alligator deep pond at the end of the boardwalk is beautiful… I saw many birds even in the rain… But no alligators as they were likely in the water, keeping warm, being in the colder air from the rain Wheel check, accessible flat boardwalk is an easy hike for virtually anybody A super great stop… Do it!

No signs about it in the parking lot, but the boardwalk is only a couple hundred feet long due to a fire. But the little part that remains was lovely and we saw lots of birds and a snake. Bathroom and large parking lot too. Hope they rebuild it because it seems like a great place to see wildlife!

Have passed by this place a number of times but never stopped. That changed today. Cool boardwalk that will take your over swampy grassland. Depending on how much recent rain the Everglades has gotten will depend on if you see water or watery grass. Was looking hard to catch a glimpse of a Python or alligator but saw nothing. Did see where an alligator had been. Grass was laid over and it looked like alligator foot prints in the mud. The end of the boardwalk comes to an abrupt halt. The rest of it may have been washed out due to hurricane. Pillars are still out there. It’s a different kind of pretty. Glad I finally stopped.

Good little spot nearby the camping and airboating adventure to stroll around and experience the ecosystem of the everglades from close. Good pier and a trail that leads to a swamp which has gators and turtles, with a nice hut along the way. Plenty of parking space makes it accessible. I’d recommend it for quick (1-2hour) stop and take the glades in at leisure.
