As you enter Ravine Gardens State Park, the first thing you will see is this lovely garden of stone columns.
Then, when walking past the Nature Center, you will enter the formal gardens.
Descend the irregular stone stairways and you will reach the first (northern) suspension bridge.
If you visit the park at the right time of the year, you can see the beautiful azaleas on the Azalea Trail.
View of the northern suspension bridge from the service road beneath it.
There are several ways to get to this box. My recommendation is to take the Loop Trail the whole way around the park and pass this interesting amphitheater.
If you take the Loop Trail, you can descend to the southern suspension bridge from the amphitheater.
Cross the southern bridge.
When you get to the east side of the bridge, look for the staircase which leads back up to the Loop Trail.
You will know you are at the correct staircase if you see the little people sign.
Look across the trail and note the palm tree about 15 feet back in the woods.
Then look to the left of the palm tree and another 15 feet back in the woods to see this large live oak tree.
It's a whopper of a tree!
Tucked in a little nook on the backside of the tree is the box that you seek!
SPOILER ALERT!!!
