Florida spring

Gold Head Branch

A spring-fed steephead ravine and seepage spring system that bisects Mike Roess Gold Head Branch State Park. The branch originates from multiple groundwater seepage springs emerging from the sandy ravine walls, creating a cool, clear stream that winds through one of Florida’s classic steephead ravine landscapes. This unique hydrologic and geological feature is integral to the park’s terrain and supports diverse plant and wildlife habitat within the rolling sandhill, marsh, and lake environment.
