    My wife and I stopped by the visitor center and found it to be informative and the staff were helpful and friendly. We purchased a map of all the trails and sights from the gift shop. There are 400 miles of hiking trails and 180 miles of bike trails. The center has a lot of information you can get and is staffed to help you with any questions you may have. There are clean restrooms available. If this was helpful, please hit the thumbs up like.

    In addition to all the positive items mentioned in other reviews: the visitors' center is also a great place to start bicycling the Brevard Bike Path. It's not directly on the path, but a gravel road of less than half a mile leads to the trail head. Even if that trail head has parking, I'd prefer the ranger station as that has facilities.
