Econfina Creek

Pitt Spring, Sylvan Springs, and multiple small springs contribute to the clear water of Econfina Creek.

Econfina Creek and the neighboring sandhills create a unique and special habitat in Florida. Econfina Creek is largely spring-fed and is well known for its cold, clear water, natural vegetation, bird life, and geologic and hydrologic features. It is the steepest gradient canoe trail in the state, featuring rapids, springs, and rock outcrops.

Rain failing on these rolling sandhills sink into the underlying limestone aquifer and moves rapidly toward the creek where it bubbles up as pure, clean spring water.
