Moccasin Lake Nature Park - An Environmental and Energy Education Center
Opened in 1982, Moccasin Lake Nature Park is dedicated to providing guests with a unique environmental experience. Come up close to birds of prey, walk our trails beneath a canopy of beautiful oaks or join us for a Fireside Concert. We have a variety of programs too, from early morning bird walks to nature & science camps
