Lime Creek Nature Center & Conservation Area

Discover Lime Creek Nature Center & Conservation Area in Mason City

A nine-mile network of trails dissects a 440-acre area of  upland timber, open fields, restored prairie, flood-plain forest, and limestone bluffs; an ideal place for wildlife and a variety of recreational activities.  Visitors will enjoy an impressive variety of mounted animals on display in the center, along with several aquarium displays of reptiles, amphibians, and fish.  A complete exhibit renovation in 2019 provides numerous natural resource displays and "hands-on" learning opportunities for all ages.  The Cerro Gordo County Conservation Board office is located in the nature center.
