This is an amazing place! So many well cared for animals that you could get up close to and feed and pet. We petted a porcupine, fed a baby sloth, fed lemurs bananas on a stick. Great tour and now where else I’ve found you can get so close to animals. Well worth the $20.00 fee. Small group of about 8 so everyone could see and hear.

Wellington Environmental Preserve

Reviewed By Lisatimm - Wellington, United States

I live very close to this park so I use it often . I either walk , run or ride my bike . When I bike , I usually ride on the outer loop first ... It’s a sandy gravel equestrian trail ( Aprox 2 miles ) , so , I have to work a bit harder ! The inner loop is asphalt and has a few wooden bridges . The highlight of the park is the tower ... it gives and outstanding view of the entire preserve . Lots of birds , Rabbits and alligators . There is a restroom at the beginning of the trail and a few scattered in the preserve . It is well marked , so no fear of getting lost . If your looking for alligators - I have seen them most at parking lot 2 , near the water locks .
