This nature reserve was huge and very popular. 5 different trails, all of which were easy to follow and well marked.
The black, yellow and green trails are in mostly open field where there is no shade whatsoever, so I would not recommend hiking these in the dead of summer. The other two trails are in the woods with some inclines and declines.
I would have to assume there will be tons of summer and fall wildflowers at this reserve.
I saw Tons of different species of birds (even at this time of year). Saw a few butterflies which I am sure will grow in numbers once the wildflowers come in.
I also discovered a few new tree specimens that I’ve not seen before.
I will absolutely be coming back here in the summer.
I don’t recall any bathroom facilities/portapotties in the area. Great for walking, hiking or stroll with the kids.
