The Lichterman Nature Center is an indoor and outdoor facility with live animals, hands-on explorations, microscopic discoveries, a forest boardwalk three stories high, underwater viewing area and more. The Visitor Center provides visitors with exhibits focusing on the theme of metamorphosis and change as revealed by the site's main three habitats (lake, meadow and forest). Three miles of accessible trails wind and loop through representative Midsouth habitats.
