Turtle Point’s Treetop Trail
Boardwalk:
One of the highlights of visiting Turtle Point is a trip down the wooden boardwalk through the
wetlands to Big Escambia Creek. At one point, the boardwalk turns and rises an additional 15
feet in the air to take visitors into the forest canopy. This arboreal walk gives nature lovers a birds-eye
view of an adjacent wetland pond. Signage all along the boardwalk aids visitors
in plant and tree identification.
The
Gardens
The Turtle Point property is home to five teaching gardens: the butterfly garden; the rock,
fossil, & mineral garden; the bog & water garden; the vegetable garden; and the herb garden.
