Cool, but be aware that it's rather short. (0.5 miles). Like 30 - 45 minutes total.

This is a nature preserve that has a unpaved trail through the preserve. You have to watch your step and bring bug repellent as well. I really loved the fact that its not crowded with people, so most of the time you'll have the preserve to yourself.

We will be going back on a day that is not raining... but this place was AMAZING even in the rain (caution, you will get muddy). Plus as it was raining no butterflies or hummingbirds were present. Again, still a beautiful place to go and walk to feel like you are in a different world!

Excellent secluded park if you want to get away from the hustle & bustle to enjoy nature for a little. The park is located in Redlands in Southwest Miami-Dade County. As you walk through the park, you will see lots of butterflies and hear lots of birds chirping. The park has a self-guided nature trail that takes you through the many native trees of this 112-acre open space. Be careful on the trail though because it is easy to get lost if you wander off of the path. I would recommend walking it with a partner. At the welcome center, there are some nice displays and you can learn about the history of the park. There is usually a park employee on site during business hours as well. If you like to take pictures, you will find a lot of cool stuff to capture! There is no entrance fee and it also has restrooms onsite. Overall, just a nice place to take in the sights & sounds while enjoying nature.

Be sure your dog is up to date on its Rabies vaccine and wears its Rabies tag for proof.

There is no admission charge. It is a beautiful park. If you are going to the Eco Adventure it is $ 6.00. The Eco Adventure is owl sightings and a bonfire after, with a marshmallow roast. The Eco Adventures are found online. Hope this helped. Enjoy.

How do you enter and where do we park?

Don't look a dog in the eye if you don't know the dog well. Take a deep breath & relax. A dog knows you are scared before you know & will think you are up to something. Don't put your hand out towards the dog in a friendly way, because it can take it to be a threat. Stay still in a relaxed mode to let the dog sniff you. This is how the dog becomes relaxed and gains trust in you. Carry a stick, Cane, Umbrella or hold something in between you & the dog. Stand your ground and firmly say go in a calm manner.
