The Richloam hiking trail wanders across this 50,000 acre tract of the Withlacoochee State Forest. There is a main
loop trail blazed in orange with crossover trails blazed in blue allowing short day hikes or longer multi-day backpack trips.
The total length of the trail is 25 miles. Richloam offers a multitude of plant and animal life for appreciation by the nature lover.
The southwest part of this trail follows the Withlacoochee River while the northeast section of the trail follows the Little Withlacoochee
River. In between are cypress swamps, open prairies, pine plantations, hardwood hammocks, etc. The one constant about Richloam is that
it is a damp place and you are likely to be walking in water after a rain.
The Richloam trail connects to the Green Swamp West trail to the south.
