About
Wildlife surrounds more than four miles of these scenic hiking trails, including rare birds, raccoons, foxes and turtles. Guided tours take place each Saturday afternoon to help visitors learn more about the ecological zones in the park and to point out some of the area's hard-to-spot animals. Additional outdoor activities include bicycling, fishing, boating and picnicking. The preserve is accessible from the Arlington Expressway and Atlantic Boulevard on the east side of the city. There is no entrance fee.
