Great family outing
Great place to take young kids on a nice day. Only $3 admission for adults and kids are free. Chose to do a one mile loop hike, that went up and over a A frame bridge, down a narrow boardwalk next to a pond, and back through the forest and by an observation tower that looked over another pond. Saw lots of birds and it was just a nice way to get kids to experience nature. Biggest hit with the kids was the nature center. They have some tanks of turtles and frogs, plus a huge touch table where kids can touch lots of furs and animal bones. Located about ten minutes from downtown Metamora. Well signed and you have to travel about a mile down a dirt road. Went in April before the bugs came out. May need bug spray if going in the summer.

Hidden Gem
This place is a hidden gem. At first we thought it's a small park to walk but by the end we spent more than 2 hrs there. Plenty of the trails for hiking in different needs. Lots of shades along the trails. Several towers for overlook. Nature and well organized. The nature center is neat and clean.
