White Springs is located in Hamilton County west of Jacksonville between Jasper and Lake City along Highway 41 on the banks of the Suwannee River near the Georgia state line. The population estimate for July 1, 1998 was 719, an increase of 15 since 1990.The white springs on the upper Suwannee River are formed by water bubbling up though underground sulfur deposits. Paleo-Indians, settlers and tourists alike believed in the curative powers of the springs. Today, the waters of the Suwannee River provide an ideal setting for outdoor enthusiasts. Visitors can enjoy hiking, canoeing, bicycling and camping in White Springs and at nearby Big Shoals State Forest, which also offers Florida's only whitewater rafting.
