At an elevation of 755 feet, Cedar Ridge Preserve (formerly the Dallas Nature Center) is a slice of the hill country just 20 minutes outside Dallas. The Preserve is a not-for-profit natural habitat of 633 acres featuring 10 miles of hiking trails, a native plant nursery, butterfly gardens and picnic areas.
Cedar Ridge Preserve has been managed by Audubon Dallas since April 2003 by charter from the Dallas County Park & Open Space Program and the City of Dallas.

This is a plus for people who want to continue to say to the developer, both Commercial and Residential, leave some of this space alone and give the wildlife a chance....really Dallas, when will you begin to build high and not low....A/T, Tree hugging is a love of nature.

Went out there for the first time yesterday. It was surprising to see something this well maintained right here in Dallas. There is good elevation that provided some pretty decent hiking (albeit, myself being novice hiker, I don't have much to compare it to).
Either way, this is a great place to get out of the city, and into nature, without being that far from home.
