Best places: Nature preserves in Alachua County, United States

Manmade wetlands habitat with birds, crocodiles, boardwalk nature trails & ranger-led tours.

👍👍 This attraction is located right off of 441, and it is so nice and peaceful! On this particular afternoon while traveling with my husband, my brother in law and big sis we saw a couple of gators and birds. (Please give thumbs up if this review helped you!)

Woodland park with wetlands, wildlife viewing & 3 mi. of unpaved walking trails.

👍 Should have gone earlier in the day or later when the sun wasn't so bright and it wasn't almost 100 degrees. Almost gave up and fed myself to the gators. Anyways the preserve was beautiful and theres so much to look at and appreciate. A nice 6 mile hike.

👍👍 Has some nice trails to drive trough.

5,800-acre, cypress-lined lake & wildlife preserve offers fishing for bream, catfish & more.

👍 This place has four conjoined trails. But it's a relatively flat hiking trail. The longest trail is about 3 MI. But enjoyable. The trails are decently cleared. it looks like they've been maintained and mowed. Just be careful with banana spiders. Because there are a couple here and there that stretch...

Sizable nature preserve offering multi-use trails & hunting opportunities in a serene setting.
