Review:
The Rainbow Springs State Park is located about 41 miles north of Dunnellon where it is home to the source of the Rainbow River. The source spring is one of the largest in Florida and has been used by visiting humans for over 10,000 years. Today the park provides a huge recreation area for nature lovers, swimmers, paddlers and anglers. As you explore the pretty walking trails you will come across 3 separate waterfalls; although these are man-made, the surrounding vegetation has been carefully chosen to replicate natural waterfalls – they are very pretty and relaxing to watch. There is a large natural swimming hole at the spring and rental floats are available for exploring the river. There is also a large serviced campground.
