点评:This center is truly a gem that you would expect to find in a far larger community than Austin. Then again, this small Minnesota city overall lives bigger than its population would indicate.
The visitor center itself is beautifully designed and filled with hands-on exhibits to engage adult and child. Located right off Interstate 90, this center could be a brief diversion for any weary traveler. The building is open daily except Sunday.
The grounds themselves, featurung a network of well-marked and level trails, showcase a variety of environments, including oak savannah, woodland, and prairie. A small stream and pond are water features.
There is also a sugar shack for early spring maple sugaring. A charming covered bridge sponsored by the Lions Club spons the creek.
This is a perfect place for Austin city resident or traveler to be immersed in the healing power of nature.
翻译:这个中心确实是一块瑰宝,您一定希望在一个比奥斯汀大得多的社区里找到它。不过,这座明尼苏达州的小城市总体上比其人口所表明的要大。
游客中心本身设计精美,充满了亲身体验的展览,吸引成人和儿童。该中心位于 90 号州际公路旁,对于任何疲惫的旅行者来说,都可以短暂消遣。该建筑除周日外每天开放。
场地本身拥有一个标记清晰、平坦的小径网络,展示了各种环境,包括橡树稀树草原、林地和草原。一条小溪和池塘是水景。
还有一个糖棚,用于早春枫糖的制作。狮子会赞助了一座迷人的廊桥,连接着小溪。
对于奥斯汀市居民或旅行者来说,这是一个沉浸在大自然治愈力量中的完美场所。
