Dettagli

Accesso

The Nature Center is located inside Ancil Hoffman Park. As you enter Ancil Hoffman, you'll see a place to pull over and use a machine to buy a parking pass. It's $7 and you put the receipt on your dashboard. Then drive a little further and park near the Nature Center. Once you're there, the trails are flat and easy to walk. The Nature Center has a friendly staff and cool events.

The terrain down near the river is very rocky, but the rest of the trails are quite easy and child-friendly.
