About
Tram Road Equestrian Campground sits within Tiger Bay State Forest, a 27,000-acre expanse of woodlands and wetlands in Volusia County that provides critical aquifer recharge for the region. The campground is designed primarily for equestrian camping but welcomes all campers. Four spacious primitive campsites surround a central equestrian day-use area equipped with a round training pen, corrals, and the Foster Pavilion. Each site includes an adjacent horse corral, picnic table, fire ring, and grill. The forest features two natural lakes, Indian Lake and Scoggin Lake, along with several ponds available for fishing including Coon Pond, Rattlesnake Pond, Woody Pond, and Ranch Pond. Recreational opportunities abound with extensive trails for hiking, biking, and horseback riding throughout the forest. The Pershing Highway Trail offers a unique scenic hike over a mile of brick road constructed in 1917. Wildlife viewing and bird watching are excellent throughout the year, and the forest is open to hunting in season. The campground is accessible via Rima Ridge Road from State Road 40 and is located approximately 10 minutes west of Ormond Beach. Nearby attractions include the Daytona International Speedway, multiple state parks, Canaveral National Seashore, and Ocala National Forest. Campers should note that a gate combination is required for entry and is provided in the reservation confirmation email.
