Pioneers Park Nature Center

Pioneer Park is one of the best attractions in Nebraska. This park has it all (puts on SNL Stefon voice):-History (the pillars that were part of the original treasury building)-Culture (the statue and story of Red Cloud)-Nature (the beautiful scenery and ponds)-Wildlife (the buffalo/deer/etc)And it is just a few minutes from Lincoln and a short drive from Omaha!I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a relaxing, but still adventurous, activity!

Such a beautiful park! It is always clean and it is large enough to do a bit of exploring through walking trails and history monuments!

I was looking for another fun park to do some exploring. I found this and decided to check it out - there is so much here to see. I really wish I had known and found the older exploratory part of the park earlier in the day - I spent too much time on the picnic-y parts of the park, but I enjoyed it. The signs were a little bit misleading - there are parts of the exploritory area that are closed to the public but there was no warning of that when you were heading that way. I actually really enjoyed the bird observatory and the bridge. It was such a hot day but I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

A lot of trails, cosy quiet places, water features, everything for a beautiful family outing on a cool sunny day. One of my favorite nature places in Lincoln. Still haven't explored every part of it. Looking forward though. Dogs are allowed on leash, except for narrow hiking trails.

A wonderful park in Lincoln, Nebraska.This is a 668 acre nature preserve with over eight miles of trails, several ponds, two interpretive buildings and a full program of activities.I love to sit and watch the buffalo.

Nice park with a decent playground and numerous paved and not paved trails to hike. Plenty of picnic areas with tables. The nature center offers animals to pet and helpful guides as well as a gift shop. Down the road from the nature center are bison.

The Nature Center is the best. Kids love to run around, it's rarely crowded, and it's always free. They have special events for the kiddos throughout the year, and fundraisers catered toward adults. Plus, we love the hayrack rides. Fall is the most wonderful time to visit! You can become a member to help support the Nature Center and be the first to learn about upcoming events.

This has been always a favorite place to come since I have been a child with my family and now my husband! It's beautiful and the nature trails are so well kept!! Everything is so well maintained! And so peaceful and beautiful!Perfect for a picnic! Or an entire afternoon! A great place to come and enjoy a day or an afternoon!!

Been here a few times and I love it! There are plenty of walking trails for you and your fur babies. There's a lot to check out.
