    Well worth a visit.

    Being from the UK I'm used to small nature reserves; this one is humongous. Take sun screen , a hat, insect repellent and a water bottle. There is a very nice visitor centre which has a water machine and toilets, also plenty of seating and...More

    Relaxing 😎

    I went to the preserve and it's a great place to relax and spend the evening. It has many picnic areas and I really recommend comfortable sneakers and a well stocked backpack. It has various walking trails from a mile to 6 miles. I didn't...More

    I spent a morning hiking in the Disney Wilderness Preserve. The preserve is operated and managed by the Nature Conservatory. The name can be misleading, as Walt Disney World doesn't own the land anymore. Walt Disney had originally purchased the area to prevent any further...More

    Peaceful

    Genuine bit of wilderness, prepare to walk and watch.

    Firstly, don't get misled by the word Disney, there is nothing more un-Disneylike than this place..... not a Mickey to be see anywhere. It gets it's name because Disney had to pay to preserve and set-aside this place as an "offset" for all of their...More

    No Shade, No Wildlife But a Nice Walk To The Lake

    We did not see much and I am not sure how on a weekday anyone would say it was excellent. The only wildlife we saw were everyday birds and a millipede! But, if you take the red trail just to the lake it is a...More
