Juhring Nature Preserve

"Good trail but I’m pretty sure I saw a coyote. Left as soon as I could."

"If you're tired of the planned, paved nature trails, dreamt up by some city planner who's never been in nature. If you're tired of the wood chips paths that used to be railroads tracks, now, overrun with people & with no sign of any animals, then THIS is the place for you. This is an ACTUAL Forest, where you can walk in far enough and not hear cars whizzing by and you can see fresh tracks from the deer and other animals. get up-close-and-personal with nature. There are some paths but it's largely an open Forest. I would encourage all the visitors to pick up any litter, you can while you're there to help keep the area beautiful. There are spots where you'll find the occasional broken glass bottle, so make sure you wearing proper footwear. There is no bad time to go to the forest. So, put down your smartphone and grab your kids and go turn over a long and look at bugs. Walk around the lake. Look for turtles and fresh tracks. You won't regret it and your family will thank you for the authentic experience."

"Love this small gem but DO NOT follow gps. No one seemed to know where these woods were and I could see how close I was— ended up finding a pdf map online with driving directions but I wish there was more clear signage or better gps"

"Pristine park. Good getaway from the city and is reminiscent of the bramble in Central Park."
