BREC's Bluebonnet Swamp Nature Center - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Beau site pour une promenade d’après midi. Quoiqu’il y’a probablement plus à voir tôt le matin. C’est bien aménagé, le centre d’interprétation est intéressant il y’a plusieurs espèces à voir en cage et aquarium.

Et pour $2.50/ personne c’est vraiment peu pour passer du bon temps en famille.

Un très bel endroit à visiter. Ce n’est pas long et il y a des plusieurs sentier à voir. On a bien aimé le centre d’interprétation ou le responsable a été très gentil et nous a montré un alligator et des serpents. Les exhibons sont très bien fait et intéressants.

Sublime atmosphere that will whisk you away from the noise of the modern world, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the wonders of the natural world.

So many magnificent wild species remind you to unwind and take time to find serenity.

Educational plaques help to inform you of the beautiful biome surrounding; easy to navigate, and excellent information center.

Dozens of immaculate captive ambassador animals in wonderful condition being fed their meals and crawling or wiggling around right before your eyes!

Can't wait to come back some time soon!

Bringing my grandkids to BREC's Bluebonnet Swamp Nature Center turned out to be a delightful adventure for all of us. As we embarked on our nature walk, the kids' eyes widened with wonder at the enchanting blend of towering trees and winding trails that seemed to whisper secrets of the swamp's rich ecosystem. We meandered along the boardwalks, peering over the edges to spot turtles basking in the sun and vibrant birds flitting between branches. The inquisitive energy of the grandkids was infectious, as they eagerly pointed out every creature: real or imaginedAs we wrapped up our visit, to a trip to the gift shop, the kids chattered excitedly about the creatures they'd seen and the fun they'd had, leaving us with cherished memories and a deeper appreciation for the natural world.

The nature center was a great experience. The education staff was knowledgeable, and the exhibits of art in January were excellent. Will visit again.

This is a MUST. Hidden gem. I have 2 munchkins and they LOVED IT, especially the nature center. The animals are so well taken care of and the staff is exceptional. Niko was extremely genuine and informative to us. The gift shop is very affordable. Everything is clean. The trails are half gravel/ boardwalk. I brought a car stroller and it was a little challenging going through the gravel but doable! Definitely front carrier friendly. It is a wonderful place to let kids explore. The trails smell so floral and fresh. I would definitely like to go by myself and take the time to bird watch and sightsee. This is our new weekly trip, and not to mention they honor library adventure passes!

we attended the bluebonnet swamp and nature centers 27th birthday. It was a free event posted on Facebook. It was an enjoyable event with lots of attractions live animals live viewing areas live feeding areas arts and crafts and birthday cake. My kids had a lot of fun. we learned a lot about animals. They also have two really good nature loops to walk. I would recommend bringing a stroller with bigger wheels if you have a little ones, the tiny wheels on the stroller didn’t do good with the tiny gravel on the trails
