phinizy swamp nature park印象

We took our grandsons on an August morning when it was overcast and not too hot. My husband and I tried it one time when there was a heat advisory and we didn't even make it to the beginning of the trail. Bring water and insect repellant. Our grandsons thoroughly enjoyed the 2 mile trail although the 3 year old got tired of walking near the end. They have a small museum in a building that's at the end of one trail. It is only open on weekends. There's a sheltered picnic area by the parking lot and bathrooms with running water across the parking lot. This would be a good place to go in the fall or spring. The grandsons love animals and nature and really liked the park.

A very good place to take a leisurely hike with children. Flat terrain, excellent facilities and an overall great nature experience,, no video games or screens here just the great outdoors,,

Pros:-You will see lots of wild life! We have seen: alligators, turtles, snakes, water frogs, tree frogs, huge crayfish, hawks, owls, ospreys, anhingas, great blue heron, white ibis, spoonbill, great white egret, geese, ducks, hogs, deer...and many more.-Amazing boardwalk through the swamp with beautiful cypress trees with Spanish moss hanging down.-Several paths ranging from a mile hike all the way to 4 miles.-Bring a picnic...there are several places you can hike to where you can sit and enjoy...just don't feed the animals and don't leave any trash.Cons:-Wear a hat! You will encounter deer flies that land on your head...but if you have a hat on, then you will be fine.-Bring bug spray-Not a place to bring your fishing poles.

Phinizy Swamp Nature Park is a cool place to visit for a few hours to see the scenery of a swamp. A long wooden bridge/walkway goes over the swamp, putting one right in the middle of the action. Connected to this walkway is a gazebo, giving the chance to sit and chill while admiring the view. Swamp-living birds fly around, fish and turtles are in the water, and an alligator can sometimes be spotted. It is free to walk around the swamp. Parking is not far from the start of the walkway. It's not an incredibly huge place though. For Augusta, where I live, it's one of the most unique experiences we have to offer.

I drove over from Athens (about 1 1/2 hours) for my first visit to Phinizy Swamp and I wasn't disappointed. I spent about 2 hours walking around with my camera photographing birds, butterflies, dragonflies, and snakes. I also saw rabbits, deer, and an armadillo. A great place!

I have been to other swamps and this one is disappointing. Not that much wildlife. Perhaps the time was not right. Parking is rather far from the trails. No maps or signs along the trails and I suggest studying the satellite image and print it for reference if you intend to walk along the extended trails.

Don't expect to go here and see an immense amount of wildlife, but it is absolutely beautiful to take a nature walk on. The views and scenes within the trails are truly breathtaking. Very nice place to soak up some nature and breathe in all that fresh air!

this place is unbelievable! The beauty of nature and the tranquility of this place is fantastic! You can bike through here for hours and still not see it all!

During the summer this was gorgeous. The staff was friendly in the visitor center, and the trails were well maintained and interesting. We saw a lot of wildlife (alligator, birds, turtles, etc.) Bring bug spray since there is a lot of tall grass.
