Gulf Branch Nature Center & Park is a great neighborhood green space. There's a small parking lot by the small nature center that does programming in non-pandemic times. Attached to the center is an outdoor terrace with chairs and a caged area for an owl. Just outside of the nature center is a small pond, a 1871 restored log cabin and an old blacksmith. This is where the trail starts that takes you into different Arlington neighborhoods and to an area with picnic tables and tennis courts. Benches are along the way and a small bridge over a creek.

It has live animals that are great for kids to view, a bee hive, a rescued owl, and A great educational area for kids. There is a nice outdoor area for a short interesting walk. It is a great combination of the outdoors and a complimentary indoor education. Plus, the people that work there are kind, informative, and friendly! Great free couple hour activity for kids and even the nature minded adult!
