Lovely forested area on the transition between the Piedmont and Coastal Plain. Well marked trails, lovely sensory garden (although right now they ask for no touching), picnic and playground area, pond, butterfly garden - so many interesting parts to visit. The also have great programs, especially for children.

A little gem right in Auburn! Great place to go and just unplug from the daily grind for a short while. Nice little surprises to find along your walk, including a small waterfall. Just stand and listen with your eyes closed for a few minutes!

It looks a nice place but we couldnt even explore it because we came with our dog and its NOT DOG FRIENDLY

Had a great time! Fun for all ages

Great short trails for kids and fun mini experiences and spots to explore. Trails could be better marked but is not a problem with a map (available on their website).

Amazing place to hike. Very family friendly, has a play area and plenty of shade. Hiking trails are great, not too hard so its nice for senior citizens as well. Has beautiful scenery and a water fall. A sensory garden and an area to hold events. One of the best public outdoor parks around.

Love the walking trails and their programs- the Halloween event was cute, but a little juvenile for the 4th graders we took. I would say that event needs to be described as a 3 yo- 9 yo event

Peaceful and well-maintained. Oriented toward families so children can be loud on the trails.

Beautiful place! Lots of hiking trails and beautiful scenery. Always feel like Im finding something new here

There are a few very pretty and very easy trails, perfect for kids. There are educational areas spread throughout. I love going here for a quick walk through the woods.

My happy place, always. such a lovely escape. beware of horse flies!!!!!!!

Easy walk with fantastic trees and great areas to observe wildlife.

Nice place for family or solo.

It is great place for hiking with children. Easy to walk and many informative signs for learning about trees, animals and nature.

Just started running again and this was a nice quiet place to run a couple miles...

I discovered by chance this place but it exceeded my expectations. Its absolutely beautiful! Totally recommended if youre looking for a short, different trip

Great place for children and feel the nature

If your looking for a little fun, adventure, exercise or calm, relaxation and solitude- this is the place. Bring the kidos or just yourself. We love this little hidden oasis!

Wonderful hiking trails. Fantastic educational programs. Such a gem in our community!

Great place. Has playground for kids. Picnic tables and plenty of trails to hike. This is even an alligator.

Nice park close to Auburn. Multiple trails. Good birding. Easy access

Quiet n relaxing. Not far from loaclity. Large enough to get lost in jungle. Good for a day out or just for an evening.

This is a lovely park with lots of love keeping it in great condition. Love the volunteers’ efforts and the beauty. Be sure to leave yourself a couple of hours to appreciate it! We will be back!

Great place to explore. 6 miles of trails, an ecological playground, and more. Great for field trips too.

Beautiful trails close to town. There is natural wildlife as well as a few reptiles in cages (alligators), a play ground, hiking trails from beginner to a 5k trail running spot, and the waterfall. The staff is very helpful and there is always something to learn, see, and explore.

Absolutely beautiful! Free, well cared for, educational, shaded, sensory friendly, handicap accessible, and has walking trails for all levels of walkers. The natural playground is wonderful, even my son with a brain malformation and coordination disorder can enjoy! The sensory garden, and fairy gardens are fantastic too!

Free and peaceful. Bring good walking shoes.

Good place to walk. No dogs or bikes allowed which kind of sucks but I get it. Nice trails, not super stunning, but not half bad. Great place for kids to play on yhe playground and explore nature

Pretty good. Probably needs more restrooms. But amazing other than that.

The nature preserve is a hidden gem in Auburn. A great place to enjoy the outdoors

Its a nice place to bring the family for a stroll through nature. There is a little history there. It isnt challenging at all. There are public restrooms, a playground and a picnic area as well as trails to walk.

Nice trails for every type of hiker or nature enthusiast. Also has a play area for kids.

Very interesting nature preserve. There is remnants of an old moonshiners distillery on site that gives the woods a neat vibe.

Very fun! Bring water! There are toilets two that I know of!

Wonderful forest. Theres a butterfly garden, plenty of trails, and cute gardens. Worth the stop and soak it in.

Its peaceful with easy hiking trails.

A fun place for people of all ages.

Beautiful. Great small preserve for adults and children. Wonderful staff.

Its nice scenery and close to town, but not great for a vigorous hike.

Very tranquil and enjoy the natural environment.

Great place to have a kid’s birthday party. Kids can learn about bugs and reptiles and explore nature.

Great hiking trails! Can’t wait to come back

My family and I absolutely love this place!Their childrens playground is entertaining and engaging. Their events are top quality and highly recommended.The woman who runs this place has an excellent vision and has done a great service to the community with all of the improvements, offerings, and focus on children.

A great place to just walk around and slow down for a bit. There is a nice playground for little ones made mostly of things from the forest. The reason why Im giving this three starts is because I went the other day and they mowed all of the underbrush! Now it just feels like you are walking through a construction zone. Sad. Hopefully it will recover quickly.

Cleared and easy to walk paths, babbling water, and a large play area, make this a great family location!

We love the preserve. Its fun to play and learn!

Great playground area that is all custom built and includes a large sandbox area with shovels and rakes for the kids to play with. They have several portch swings and picnic tables for lunch and adults to sit down at.We didnt go on the trails this time, but from what we did go on, things looked to be well kept and looked like there were several nice nature trails. Well definitely be back!

There are some nice trails to check out.

Excellent outdoor space! Lots of trails, lots to do for adults and for kids as well! Very large amount of land to explore.

These trails are awesome and the nature center keeps getting better. Ask to pet a hissing cockroach. They are so cute!

Neat place to take your children

Beautiful scenery and 3 different walk trail.

A wonderful trail network on university land. spacious playground for kids and dont miss the Fairy Trail

Beautiful Serene location.Attenfed a lovely wedding there.

Pretty cool place for taking a walk with the kids, bonus its free

Great place to go hike in town. Well manicured trails with good signage. Plus, there educational programs are very informative.

Nice park! More for hiking. If your fitness level is more at walking it may be a little much but its a very nice outside experience!

Cute little playground and picnic area. Bathroom is an outhouse. Great place for families

Nice trails, pretty flat. Good for families.

Such an amazing place to explore!

Easily the best park in Auburn. The trails are very pedestrian friendly without sacrificing any of the views, which are incredibly scenic. Great for running, or just enjoying nature.

My children love this park!

This is beautiful! i am an auburn student and went for the first time and was blown away by the sheer number of species in the preserve.

Great place to hike and take the kids. Outdoor playground is awesome. Very good place to get the kids outside.

Great place for you to take kids to have them learn about animals and hike in the great outdoors.

Nice and quiet. There is a fire pit that I wonder if I can use.

It takes a walk half an hour walk to get there. Quite, Comfortable and shade....

Great place but so many chiggers! Bring lots of DEET!

Another great resource to the city if you have kids.
