Annutteliga Hammock Trailhead
This trailhead offers access to approximately 8 miles of multiuse trails for hiking and horseback riding. The Annutteliga Hammock is an important area for groundwater recharge into Florida's primary drinking water source, the Floridan aquifer system. Situated in the Brooksville Ridge, which runs from northern Citrus County down into central Pasco County, the lands are slightly higher in elevation than the adjacent coastal or central portions of the state. The area within the Brooksville Ridge typically has well-drained soils, karst limerock outcroppings and is dominated by sandhills, upland hardwood forests and scrub communities. Property links with the Chassahowitzka Wildlife Management Area, which is a prime Florida black bear habitat area.

JustHavinFunThis is a beautiful and underused park. It's a beautiful, peaceful place for a hike in the forest. It's usually not busy here, so it's a good park to enjoy solitude in nature. The trails are mostly easy with some elevation change and, for the most part, well marked. There are huge old oak trees and plenty of palms, too. Some areas of the park have a bit of a Jurassic park feel to it. The walk-in primitive camp sites I saw had fire rings and picnic tables. ↪️ Be mindful of ticks. 😬

A_Parked_Stang _Very nice scenery, ticks where horrendous. Out there for maybe 45 minutes found 8 ticks on me crawling around thankfully and not biting me, somehow one was crawling on my dash board, when I got back in my vehicle. Crazy!!!

Katherine ToweryOk so yes this area is beautiful, I will give it that but if it wasnt for my hiking/hunting experience it could have gone bad. This is NOT kept up at all and is hardly if ever used. The trail markings were hard to find and this area is full of hogs that can become extremely aggressive. One of which I came up within 20 ft of which again i was well aware due to hunting. It is nice but i suggest not going it alone , I brought my large dog with me .

Donald StonerGreat hike with my dog, didn't see another person at all. The yellow trail is constantly changing elevation and surroundings , there is a few roots and rocks to watch out for along the way but overall it's a fairly easy path to follow. The yellow blazes looked freshly painted. Like the other reviews I did find ticks but was not bothered by any other bugs. It's almost all shaded and didn't get hot
