Florida state park
River Rise Preserve State Park is a Florida state park, located six miles north of High Springs, off U.S. Route 441. Its name derives from it being where the Santa Fe River comes to the surface after having traveled underground for some distance beneath adjacent O'Leno State Park, one of Florida's original state parks. River Rise Preserve Stare Park took shape in 1974 when 4,500 acres were acquired by the state for it.
The natural land bridge over the Santa Fe River where it travels underground for three miles serves as an important corridor for indigenous tribes, for the Spanish who incorporated it into their Mission Trail also known as El Camino Real, and for early American Florida that utilized the same crossing as part of the Bellamy Road.
