Passive and Active Recreation Coincide

Acreage Pines Natural Area preserves 124 acres of wetlands and pine lands adjacent to Acreage Community Park. A boardwalk allows visitors an opportunity to watch dragonflies, herons, and egrets hunt for food in the wetlands. A hiking trail winds through slash pines and saw palmettos. Keep an eye out for the acrobatic displays of common nighthawks!
