Lake Seminole Park is an over-250 acre park, located on the shores of Lake Seminole in Pinellas County, Florida. It is home to biking and walking trails, as well as wildlife.[1]

The main wildlife consists of alligators, bald eagles, black vultures, roseate spoonbills, osprey, tiger swallowtail, pickerelweed, river otters, and green tree frogs. The invasive exotic plant reduction project is a volunteer program, where people reduce the reproduction of invasive plants, like pepper trees. The trees that need to be removed have a pink ribbon tied around them so you can see that it needs to be taken out.

Amenities

Besides a normal park, the Lake Seminole Park offers also 13 picnic shelters and a ballfield. Due to a boat ramp people are able to go fishing in the lakes. The park is also designed for injured people with wheelchairs.[2]
