Louisville Nature Center — Attraction in Louisville

Such a beautiful place with quite a large number of different species of wild animals as well as the wild birds of Kentucky. As you enter the Louisville Nature Center building look at the interesting collection on display. You can venture out back to the trails leading to an indoor bird watching building for a close up look at your favorite birds as well as birds you may have never had the pleasure of seeing before! They have many bird feeders attracting a nice variety of all our extremely special local birds, fenches, hawks,owls......The trails continue on. Enjoying the scenery and peaceful feeling of Nature all around you is refreshing. Don't be surprised when a deer, fox, Turkey....walks past. JUST have the camera ready! It's a great experience, I have returned several times...

My 3 year old is now in love with this center! Parents this is a great place to take our kids to get dirty and learn! The staff of volunteers are all very passionate and you can see their genuine love for nature which makes the trails and nature experience for both adults and children more enjoyable. PS. I tried the trails at first with a stroller for my 1 year old and had to go put the stroller back in the car. They have a bird viewer area sooo cool for little people, and the turtle area is super cool my kid loved learning that the turtle was sleeping for winter in the ground and he didn't even get to see it. But they actually took him out to explain it all to him. Wonderful place...

We didn't even know this place existed, but thinks to the culture pass we got for my son we found it and LOVED IT. There is an awesome trail for nature exploration right in the heart of Louisville. There are multiple legs of the trail for .5 miles, 1.0 miles and 1.5 miles. It was great and my 6yr old wanted to take the long way. There is also a natural outdoor playground so that the kids can play in sandboxes, rock boxes, climbing areas, etc Inside was a "library" with TONS of things for the kids to touch, hold, look at, etc. Animal parts, live bugs and turtles to observe and friendly staff to educate. My son was in awe. We will...
