The Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge is one of my favorite places to visit.  I love being there in the early morning or late evening when the swamp is quiet. If you prefer, you can take your canoe or kayak, but I prefer to hire a guide and a boat. We can explore parts of the swamp that the tourist cruises don’t see. There are trails to hike also. I’ve hiked one a few years ago but I want to do more.
