Tibet-Butler Nature Preserve

The Tibet-Butler Nature Preserve is a scenic nature centre on the west side of Orlando, popular among hikers for its various trails. Home to the Vera Carter Environmental Center, visitors can tour a variety of exhibits and displays before heading out on a trek.

The well-maintained trails loop through many of Florida’s major habitats, including pine forests, a swamp and a lakeshore lined by cypress trees. Elusive fauna and wildlife also make this preserve their home such as the barred owl and river hawk. The preserve includes a picnic area, a butterfly garden and a sandbox – all located near the nature centre. Dogs and bicycles are not allowed.
