Carl E. Wynn Nature Center, Alaska, United States


4.5 (22 reviews) Spent Ranking #20 in Homer Forests

We saw A MOOSE.

It was pouring rain and we decided to do a hike here. Ryan was there to get us set-up and give us the trail maps. He knows a lot about the history of the land and what grows there. He recommended the moose viewing platform and WE SAW OUR FIRST MOOSE THERE! It was majestic. For that brief moment, we were in awe of that giant beast running around. The trails and plants are all labeled and easy to read. We loved learning about all of the plants and their qualities. Our advice is to do the two for $15 where you get to experience this amazing system of trails AND get to do the Creatures of the Dock tour. Both are quality experiences.

    Fantastic!
    We went on a naturalist led hike which was amazing. My 5 kids ages 11-2 all enjoyed it. The naturalist was very engaging with the kids and my husband and I learned a lot as well. There was also a great natural play area where we spent an hour after our hike. I would highly recommend!

    Beautiful Nature center
    This was relaxing and I felt I was on a hike way out in a rural area but then when walking close to the road with traffic going by ou realize your not. All the plants were so beautiful and many of them tagged and titled. So if your a plant and nature person you'll love this. We even saw a glimpse of a moose from a distance. There is non strenuous flat paths and then another one across the road that is on a downward slope that is more strenuous. All in all a pleasant experience.
