👍👍 Beautiful remnant longleaf pine. Whenever I return here from afar, this place is on the must visit list. Been hiking here since my Mom brought my young brothers and I here in the 70's. Much has changed as the urban area is now knocking on its door. This awesome forest is a window into the past... Wh...

👍👍 Yet ANOTHER GREAT Triangle Land Conservancy property. I've hiked all of their preserves except one (that's on the agenda soon) and they are always great hikes with great scenery.

This tranquil, 296-acre nature preserve features wooded hiking trails & streams.

👍👍 Very excited to visit the Nature Center and more importantly hike the trails. While improvements are still being made the signage and trails are finished. Every time I visit I see so many locals, many are families, enjoying the new trails. There are not many benches or places to rest so if you nee...

Animal preserve offers thousands of acres of habitats, trails, fishing ponds & educational tours.

👍👍 Always beautiful and very special to me. I have other names for this place. Some know it as Shacktown Falls, but it will forever be Anna’s Falls to me. Great place to relax and listen to nature and let my spirit be closer to my little girl and God.

👍👍 We love this preserve. There's plenty of walking trails easily accessible for all skill levels. It's a great place to run or just commune with nature. It's particularly spectacular at sundown. Hope to see you out there! I particularly love it early in the morning or at sundown.

👍👍 Fun, easy hike to do with the kids. It was very short but fairly steep. I wish they let you walk out on the rocks but there isn’t much to do at the top but the view is nice. There were restrooms at the bottom but not at the top (at least none open). Most of the path way paved except one short sectio...

👍👍 My dog and I love this place! Nice, shaded trails, 3 to choose from and one bonus trail, all with beautiful views

👍👍 Absolutely love this trail! Thank you to all those that put in the hard work to make it happen and maintain it. Very close to home and it’s a fun quick little loop or not too bad to ride over and over and over again. Highly recommend visiting this for a walk or a bike ride!
