Exploring Oviedo
Established as an agricultural community around Lake Charm and the shores of Lake Jesup, Oviedo is surrounded by public lands offering interesting hikes and off-road biking.
The town is a Florida Trail Gateway Community, with both the Florida Trail and the Cross Seminole Trail intersecting the heart of the historic downtown.
Nearby Little Big Econ State Forest and other public lands that buffer the Econlockhatchee River provide hikers, cyclists, and paddlers miles of well-forested outdoor recreation.
