Year-Round

The Houston Nature Center functions both as a nature center and as the trail-head facility for the Root River Trail in Houston. Here you can camp, take a shower, enjoy our hands-on nature displays, meet Alice the Great Horned Owl, walk through the prairie, take in a Saturday evening program during the summer, or enjoy our recycled bike art!
