mount dora canal by doug48
originally called the elfin river the dora canal was dredged in the 1880's. this beautiful one mile waterway connects lake dora with lake eustis. on the banks of the river you will see florida wildlife and 2,000 year old cypress trees. part of the famous movie "the african queen" was filmed on the dora canal. there are boat tours of lake dora and the dora canal departing from the lakeside inn.
