Great little nature preserve, close to everything! Nice trails, for different types of hiking. Gravel, mulch, paved. Stroller and handicapped accessible. Friendly staff!
The Babes in the Woods programming is wonderful. Great topics, thoughtfully planned, and well executed. My toddler takes a variety of Fairfax and Arlington county classes and she especially loves this program. I prefer the convenience of this class being sign up session by session instead of a weekly reoccurring commitment.
The nature center has a lot of great trails. There are many signs and benches on the trails. It also has a building with animals in it. They also have pictures of animals that won awards.
Great staff, awesome nature hike and education center. Great place to take the kids!
Attended an Improv show performed after dark at the HQ building. Good facilities. Did not see the rest of the Center but was told by local residents that it is attractive and fun to use.
Nice little trail in the back of this Nature Center. I didn't go inside, and walked the short trail in the back and the trail around the area. The area is very clean. It is also very dog friendly.
This was a great place to hike with my 2 year old. There were dirt paths and paved paths. You choose which way you want to go (or ask your 2 year old which way lol). Hiked 2 miles. Very nice. Will do this again. Not too many people on paths.
The nature center has beautiful walking trails that are well maintained and easy to follow. It is in a residential area, but if you stick to the inside trails, you don't even notice the houses, as the trails tend to be very deep in the woods.
It is always quiet, secluded, and not overrun with people. There are plenty of small wildlife, ferns, trees, and even some small streams spread about.
I highly recommend it.
