Welcome to the Nation's only accredited Museum dedicated to native plants.
Visitors to the Preserve will find about 4½ miles of trails to explore through a wide variety of ecological habitats. There are trails that wind through the forest, some that follow along a stream, our pond and wetlands, and several others that weave through the meadow near the Preserve’s entrance. Make sure you pick up our Visitor Guide and Trail Map at the Visitor’s Center when you arrive.
Depending on your group and your level of ability, there are trails that offer the exact hiking and nature experience you are looking for. Most are gently meandering, ideal for leisurely strolls. Others are more rugged, allowing for a moderately strenuous workout.
Parking
Free parking is available in the Visitor Center parking lot, with additional parking along the left side of the entrance road (Continental Drive) or by the Captian James Moore Pavilion.
Accessibility
The main floor of the Visitor Center, the restrooms and the parking lot are accessible to all.
Strollers can travel easily on the paved main pedestrian road and the path around the pond. Most of the rest of the trails can best accommodate strollers with all-terrain type wheels.
For convenience of all-weather walking, the trails are surfaced with gravel and linked by a paved pedestrian roadway. Many trails are quite flat and equally suited for a leisurely meander or a fast-paced walk.
Simple Rules to Follow
Please follow these rules as a courtesy to other visitors and to protect the Preserve's habitats and native plants:
Service dogs only. Pets are not allowed (even on leash) within the fenced portion of the Preserve.
Please do not pick or collect the wildflowers or other plants.
Walk only on the trails.
No fishing, hunting, swimming or cross-country skiing. No horseback riding, motorcycles, snowmobiles or off-road vehicles.
No bicycling on or off the trails. You may ride your bicycle or motorcycle up to the Visitor Center; a bicycle rack is provided.
