What to know about Cliff jumping at Hart Springs.

Hart Springs sits near Gainesville, Florida, giving iCliffDive a source-bounded planning page for this Florida water spot. The available public guide notes describe the setting, nearby access context, and broad trip-planning details, but they do not replace a current onsite check. Conditions can change with rainfall, runoff, crowding, debris, seasonal maintenance, and shifting footing around the water. Even when a creek, river, falls, spring, pond, or pool looks familiar online, the landing zone, takeoff options, current, and exit route can shift enough to change the risk profile. Before planning a visit, verify legal access, parking, posted rules, water depth, current, submerged hazards, and the full in-and-out route. If any of those checks are unclear when you arrive, treat Hart Springs as a no-go that day.
