Brought back nice memories. We used to start at the bottom and go upriver up to the springs and back. About 5 hours trip. Amazing place!
So nice there, glad you got to revisit those memories!!
I never knew (probably like most folks) much about the Florida springs untilI was introduced to your channel. Beautiful ride - monkeys, gators, turtles and spectacular birds! Great trip... great video!
See you have to get down here and experience it with us! Have a great week Randy!!
Beautiful....thanks for the trip 🙂

Really enjoyed the video.
Hey thank you! It is a must do paddle if you get the chance!!
Enjoyed it! Ty
Thank You so much!
I just found this video and can’t wait to kayak at Silver Springs. I’ll be there in December.
What a great month to do this paddle!! You will love it, we have done it twice now!!
I love your videos of the FL springs. Your Rainbow Springs video inspired us to start visiting them. So far we've camped at Rainbow, Wekiwa, and Silver Springs...and had a day trip to Ponce De Leon Springs State Park. Florida really has a great resource with its springs and state parks.
That is so great! The Springs really make me appreciate Florida and proud to call it my home state! We are trying to get to a few more this year so stay tuned! Thank You for supporting the channel, we appreciate it!!
Wow...im a fla native and havent been able to get into rainbow....
Rainbow is really great!!
This is one of my favorite parks. I need to go back and do the kayak tour.
Yes the kayaking is amazing there!!
Another great video
Thanks Bart! Love me some kayaking, gonna try Kayaking at Rock Springs in April I think!
@@CampTravelExplore You may be able to do an update on Kelly at the same time. Should be completed.
Yes, great idea!! TY!
very nice!
Its a great kayaking run!!! Thanks for checking it out and leaving us a comment!!
Looked like that bird was your guide in the water as you paddled behind him. On our list to hit up not far from us at all. Just swam with a ton of Manatees and so amazing. Great video tour Tom. Hope all is well with your family.
I have got to get over there to Crystal river and swim with the manatees! Hope you all are great as well!
@@CampTravelExplore has been a great season this year so many calfs!
I'll try to let you know when we make our way over to do it!
@@CampTravelExplore sounds good Tom.
Awesome job. Keep up the great videos. We truly enjoy seeing all of your adventures. Maybe one day we will be at the same place you are. We would love to introduce ourselves and thank you in person. Take care - stay healthy, and now go wash your hands.
Thank You so much Bill! Do you live in the Central Florida area?
@@CampTravelExplore we are from Minnesota. My wife and I just retired and are snowbirding it exploring the Southeastern states. Currently we are in St Augustine and will be going to Silver Springs to check it out next week.
Well you must be enjoying the weather here then!! We have tons of videos from the Florida and Georgia areas that may help you in your journeys! Safe Travels and enjoy your time! Thank You for supporting our channel!!
Great video! Thanks for posting it! Kayak or canoe, which one do you think is more stable for beginners?
I always think a kayak is easier to balance!! Its a beautiful paddle!!
Man I'm doing this on Monday. So freaking excited!!!
How as your paddle?
@@CampTravelExplore absolutely amazing. It's hard to believe places like this exist outside of the movies. Do beautiful. Came face to face with a monkey
Hope you are safe after the hurricane
Nice video, as always, but it drove me nuts that your paddle was upside down throughout.
Lol, I was getting so many gators shots I never realized I picked it back up wrong
That's awsome dude..besides the park are there any close camp grounds for any trailer campers
Just a few miles away they have nice campsites at Silver Springs State Park, we love it there! Thanks for checking the video out for us!!
Right across the street from the entrance on 41
TY
Can you take your time going down the river? Do you have to have a guide? Do you have to be camping to use the kayakes or can you just spend the day at the park and use them?
No you don't need a guide and you would have plenty of time to do the route and they wait on you at the pick up. It took us a good 4 hours I would say!
pls explain why you opted for the Ft King paddling trail instead of the river for the first mile? How strong is the current?
It was a current issue as much as the route we did is calm and you will definitely see gators and more wildlife I believe :), thanks for checking it out for us!!
I’m not a fan of Monkeys which has kept me from kayaking Silver River ... but thanks for braving the simians .... have you guys gone to Silver Glen Springs ....
Silver Glen is amazing! We have a video on it, check it out and let us know what you think!!
looks wonderful...however, I would have not paddled as fast or as much as y'all did...I would have just let the current take me down the river so I could enjoy the nature.
It takes awhile, but we did stop along the way to enjoy the sights!!
Hi!! How long does it take to go down the river to the pick up point
I think you could do it in about three hours or less, it depends on how much you stop along the way to take in the wildlife. Great paddle though!!
Do you think this route and distance is beginner friendly?
I think so, its a little long for a beginner, but one I would do!
Silver Glen springs
We have a nice episode on Silver Glen Springs, we love it there!!
What was the name operator you used to rent the kayaks?
BTW... I love you CZcams videos
Im so sorry, I meant to post it in the description which I will do now, but here they are...Discovery Kayak Rentals 352-789-4959, tell them you heard about them from us if you would. Thanks so much for watching!! Their website is silverriverkayakrentals.com
Fla Native here. Seminole actually and my whole state is awesome. Including my Gov.... I'm 54 and ive been going to silver springs since before I could walk and weekie wachee
Thank You for your insights!!
💞Wow🤍🤍🤍💜💜💜🤍💜
Born and raised in Florida and NEVER knew there were monkeys here?!?!?
Its crazy right!!
is there alligator in the water? that waitinh for human and porentiallly be eaten😬
There are, but they don't bother as long as you keep your distance! Never had any problems with them and have kayaed near them quite a bit :)
It’s a shame this was done in late winter. It detracts from the splendor of this pristine jungle of central Florida.
Actually we were ther in March when we did this paddle :)
