From the lookout tower you can see for miles. There is water below in some areas so it is a good place to look for birds and alligators. It is a pretty impressive structure out here in the middle of the Glades.

This trail leads to the observation deck of the Shark Valley Observation Tower, the highest accessible point in all of Everglades National Park. Climb to the top and enjoy the panoramic views of the Everglades for miles.
