Indian Creek - FS 176

Trail Overview

Indian Creek, also known as Apalachicola National Forest Road 176, connects Black Cat at the north end and Queens Bay at the south end. It takes you through the southwest part of the Apalachicola National Forest along Bay Creek and gives you access to a few OHV and Off-Road trails. The road conditions are a mixture of packed sand, loose sand, and some deep holes that can turn into 2-foot deep mud holes after rainy days. The road is not always wide enough for two vehicles to pass. 4WD and high clearance are recommended. All vehicles must be street legal. Please be aware that the cellphone reception is weak. The Apalachicola National Forest is located in the eastern part of Florida's panhandle. It's home to some of the most unique animal and plant species in the world. Here, visitors can enjoy safe, family-friendly activities such as fishing, hunting, hiking, and trail-riding while surrounded by tranquil, diverse ecosystems.
