F.A. Seiberling Nature Realm offers winter hikes, birdwatching and other activities
The FA Seiberling Nature Realm provides something for all age groups. With several programs led by naturalists as well as workshops and feeding sessions, the Nature Realm creates a family friendly environment. Some of the programs available include “Weekday Walkers,” which involves different naturalists leading the way along a trail and providing information on the surroundings and “Show & Tell Me A Story,” which is a program for kids lead by a naturalist who holds a special thirty minute story-time session. The variety of programs with the genuine backdrop of nature and the environment create a fun learning atmosphere for children and adults. One can visit the park to simply gaze through the observation window displaying several bird feeders filled with birds devouring seeds or walk and explore the trails offered at the park. The Nature Realm offers an effective combination of learning and entertainment. The Nature Realm is located on 1828 Smith Road in Akron.
Several species of birds and other animals can be found throughout the park, and the Nature Realm also allows its visitors to hand feed the birds or view the animals through an observation room in the main building.
