Location Information
Bear Lake Trail is 1.6 miles one-way. It is located off Bear Lake Road approximately two miles north of Flamingo. The hike is a journey through a dense hardwood hammock mixed with mangroves. More than 30 different tree types may be identified. As a result, it is an excellent area for observing woodland birds. Once you reach Bear Lake, retrace your steps back to the parking lot. The trail does not circle the lake.
