Review:

Located on the Chicopee Woods Nature Preserve, the Elachee Nature Science Center is another excellent place to enjoy the outdoors and learn about Georgia's flora and fauna. The Visitor's Center boasts an excellent collection of exhibits, including a natural history exhibit, a live animal exhibit full of amphibians and reptiles, and an outdoor aviary. There are also 12 miles of trails to explore, with options ranging from a paved half-mile nature trail to a more challenging 4.5-mile hike that leads out to a beautiful lake. When you're ready for a break, relax in the peaceful picnic area or in one of the many pavilions.
