Goethe WMA consists of more than 45,000 acres in
southeastern Levy County, south of Bronson. The large tract of
old-growth longleaf pines on the area is home to the rare
red-cockaded
woodpecker, as well as the
gopher
tortoise,
Sherman’s fox squirrel, and
bald
eagle. Within Goethe are more than 15 natural community types,
including cypress swamps and sandhills. An extensive trail system may be
accessed at three separate trailheads, and recreational activities
include hunting, fishing, wildlife viewing, bicycling, hiking, horseback riding,
and picnicking.
Camping is allowed
year round through a permit obtained from the Division of Forestry.
