Harry C Barnes Memorial Nature Center

Adam Seeger

Unique little learning center, animal sanctuary and bird lookout. Animals include owls, lizards, amphibians, reptiles, and insects. Much learning info and activities. Trails in back are dog on leash friendly and will lead you to sessions woods in Burlington. Should you need a long days activity with the kids. 13 year old Luke is an excellent volunteer greeter/host, very knowledgeable and well spoken. An asset to the center. Yearly family memberships are more than reasonable.

Wonderful knowledgeable staff! The exhibits and trails are fun.

Great for children of all ages. Lots of hands on fun. Live and stuffed animals to view. Clean. There are nature trails (was not able to explore, weather permitting). Parking lot, wheelchair accessible, no changing table in restrooms. Free.

Very brief 2.5 mile run with my daughter this afternoon. Great trails that were well maintained, they even allowed a bathroom break without charging admission. Barnes nature center is a great learning center and gives kids hands on experience with nature. I believe there are summer activities signups in the spring and beginning of summer.
