Huntley Meadows Park

"It is a park where you can feel refreshed little by little in the beautiful nature when you want to have your time sometimes. Birds can fly in groups, swim, and discover the rules of nature in their movements. I think it is a grateful place to receive a time of healing from animals and plants."

"Beautiful park with all sorts of wildlife to see. Can take a walk through wooded areas and along the boardwalk that goes through two ponds. It's a nice and relaxing way to spend a couple of hours."

"Just love it here. Such an interesting place. Always something new to see and more to learn. I did one of their evening programs and learned so much! Great place to teach kids about nature, great place for bird watching, great place to hike."

"Huntley Meadows Park is one of the best nature walks I have ever encountered. They have wood bridges and walkways through the meadows and over the water. The elevated area with stairs allowed me to get a panoramic view of the lake and wildlife - very breathtaking. I appreciated all the benches to sit and rest on the nature trail. I, also, experienced many sightings of serpents - the most in my lifetime. It was very crowded on a Sunday afternoon yet it was still a pleasant time at the park. We saw cranes and turtles but mostly serpents. You can get a stamp for your passport park book at the visitor center. They do have a separate paved bike trail for bicycles. The paved hiking trail through the meadows does not allow bicycles. I was surprised at how friendly the serpents were and how they did not mind being photographed. This is a GO SEE park and worth visiting again many times. Admission is free. The visitor center has a lot of information about the park to explore as well."

"I love walking around Huntley Meadows Park. The pond changes with the seasons and I can watch different wildlife with each one. There are baby animals in the Spring, and frogs making a ton of noise at night in the fall. Many kinds of birds, and people that take wildlife photos. I enjoy the sunsets there when the sun reflects on the water. I usually walk the trails all around the park twice, which totals around 3 miles."
