Ochlockonee River

The Ochlockonee River splits the forest in half, running from Lake Talquin north of the forest down to the bay, navigable throughout its length for most of the year. Small motorboats can take advantage of the excellent fishing on the Ochlockonee by boat launches (called landings) at Highway 20, Pine Creek, Whitehead Lake, Revell, Mack, Hitchcock Lake, and Wood Lake. Canoes and kayaks may also launch from these sites. Camping, water, and restroom facilities are available at three of the areas with boat ramps: Whitehead Lake, Mack Landing, and Wood Lake. All of these sites are hunt camps during hunting season (December-January).
