Green Mountain Overlook


The Green Mountain Overlook and Trailhead in Minneola is located 132 feet above sea level and provides spectacular views of the surrounding area (you may get a glimpse of Lake Apopka in the distance as well). It features a three-story observation tower, picnic tables, restrooms and a water fountain. Hikers can access the Lake Apopka Loop Trail from the Green Mountain Overlook and take an 18-mile trek to Magnolia Park, which lies on the east side of Lake Apopka. Very peaceful! By the way, Green Mountain lies near Sugarloaf Mountain, which, at 312 feet above sea level, is the highest point on the Florida peninsula.
