The Okefenokee Paddler's Guide

Over 120 miles of marked canoe trail, the refuge's eight overnight platforms and two islands, and five ways in. This book puts all of it in one place.

Cover of The Okefenokee Paddler's Guide

Tina and I have paddled into Coffee Bay, Minnies Lake and Mixons Hammock, and those pages carry what we saw with our own eyes. Everything else comes straight from the people who run the swamp: the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Okefenokee State Park and Okefenokee Swamp Park. Every trail leg, every platform and all 34 of the refuge's official overnight trips are laid out so you can pick one and go.

  • Every marked canoe trail, leg by leg, with the refuge's own mileages
  • Every overnight platform and island, and all 34 official overnight trips
  • The five ways in, and what you will find at each one
  • Day trips, the boardwalk and the walking trails
  • Coffee Bay, Minnies Lake and Mixons Hammock from our own field notes
