Review:
KICCO Wildlife Management Area consists of more than 7,000 acres along the Kissimmee River in Polk County, south of SR 60. Almost 13 miles of the Florida Trail crosses the area through shady oak hammock, rough scrub, cypress strand, and pine-palmetto flatwoods. There is also the 9-mile shell KICCO Grade road that offers excellent biking opportunity. Wildlife includes white-tailed deer, feral hogs, alligators, bald eagles, hawks, wading birds, wild turkeys and sandhill cranes. The threatened crested caracara has been also observed in the area. A portion of the area is set aside for feral hog hunting. Camping is allowed at Hunter's Campground during periods when hunting is allowed. There is a public boat ramp located at structure 65, and a private boat ramp at River Ranch Resort can be used for a small fee.
