Hernando County Parks and Recreation Master Plan

Hernando County Parks Master Plan

The purpose of the Hernando County Parks and Recreation Master Plan is to prepare a long-term plan and vision that meets the needs of County residents, contributes to County tourism objectives, and has a positive impact upon the local economy.

The master plan process includes public involvement from County residents, including those that currently do not use the parks system; the Tourism Development Council (TDC), recreation advocacy groups, homeowners’ associations and civic associations, other identified key stakeholder groups, and the County staff.

Study Area

The study area includes all the County-owned and maintained parks within Hernando County:
