The center offers a variety of diverse habitats where you can view an abundance of birds and other wildlife. There is a 40-mile network of walking, hiking and biking trails to explore and the chance to enjoy camping at one of two campgrounds. You can enjoy boating and fishing on Bantam Lake and Bantam River – some rental equipment is available at the Folly Marina and Boat Launch. No visit to the center is complete without a tour of the Nature Museum to view the many interesting exhibits.
