Wildlife Area · Hidden Gem · Nature / Park
This 1,351-acre nature preserve on Mountain Island Lake offers an Interpretive Center, full-service Equestrian Center, 18 miles of hiking and horseback riding, Segway adventure tours, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and picnicking. The preserve is also home to the Carolina Raptor Center, Historic Latta Plantation, and the Latta Nature Center. To me this is the best place around to just spend a few hours every weekend to just get outside, unwind and see what lays around the next bend.
