A Little Story
Did you know Prescott's Community Nature Center was once part of the Prescott Unified School District? In 1974, the district established this beautiful 18 acre space to enhance outdoor learning for all students & community members. In 2006, the City of Prescott purchased the Community Nature Center as an Open Space Preserve. With over 1.5 miles of trails through centuries old prairies, towering granite boulders, and up to mountain vistas, Prescott's Community Nature Center is a very special place.
