When to Visit
In the fall, hunting pressure on Corbett is intense. Hunters can camp

pleasant in the fall, winter, and spring. In the spring and fall, the
oak hammocks and cypress swamps along the trail are alive with the songs
of large numbers of migratory warblers. During the fall and winter,
you may see some of the up to 20 pairs of sandhill cranes that nest
on the area. In the summer, the
Everglades
Youth Conservation Camp offers a host of programs for youth and
their families. The cooler, drier months of the year are good for camping
and wading bird observation.
