Clermont, Florida, is a city of roughly 45,000 residents in Lake County — a Central Florida community straddling the US-27 and FL-50 corridors west of Orlando whose rolling hill terrain, rare in the Florida flatlands, and extraordinary concentration of freshwater lakes make it one of the most quietly beautiful and most genuinely rewarding small cities in all of the Orlando metropolitan region. The sights here reward attention: Clermont Waterfront Park delivers a Lake Minneola shoreline of genuine natural beauty, and the South Lake Trail produces some of the finest cycling and walking terrain accessible anywhere in Central Florida — a city described as one of the most honestly rewarding and most completely undersung communities in all of the greater Orlando corridor.
