Parks and nature
Bike, Hike or Just Change Your View – Explore Gainesville and Alachua County’s Bountiful Outdoor Open Spaces.
Gainesville, Florida. Perhaps best known as home to the University of Florida Gators, is also a quaint city where people at UF Health Florida Recovery Center find peace and refuge in a private environment conducive to healing. Gainesville is about one hour from Florida’s west coast and an hour and a half from its east coast. Gainesville Regional Airport offers non-stop service to Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas and Miami. Gainesville is also within about two hours from major airports in Jacksonville, Orlando and Tampa.
Recovery in peace
The UF Health Florida Recovery Center campus, about two miles from Florida’s Interstate 75, is adjacent to the Bivens Arm nature sanctuary in southwest Gainesville just near Paynes Prairie Preserve Florida State Park. People who are recovering from alcohol and drug addiction find Gainesville to be an ideal place to break away from destructive environments and behaviors.
