Fowler Regional Park invites families to celebrate the holiday season outdoors with its Holiday Forest Trails & Scavenger Hunt. Spanning over 500 acres of preserved marshland and pine forest, the park features a festively decorated Nature Center where children can pick up a holiday trail guide. Kids hunt for hidden wooden reindeer, painted holiday rocks, and winter pinecone markers along the scenic 1.2-mile Island Trail and elevated marsh boardwalk tower. Afterwards, families enjoy hot chocolate, winter wildlife displays, and nature ornament crafting inside the pavilion. Family Experience & Accessibility: • Stroller Accessibility: Wide compacted earth paths and sturdy boardwalk sections accommodate all-terrain strollers; observation tower has staircase access. • Nursing & Rest Spots: Large covered picnic pavilions with tables; modern restrooms with baby-changing facilities located next to the Nature Center and playground. • Age Suitability: Wonderful adventure for energetic toddlers, preschoolers, school-age kids, and outdoor enthusiasts. • Sensory Tips: Quiet natural preserve with canopy shade and rustling pine needles; ideal for children who prefer nature over loud festival crowds. ## Similar picks in Jacksonville - [Camp Milton Historic Preserve Holiday Forest Walk & Campfire](https://grassyknees.com/jacksonville/activities/camp-milton-historic-preserve-holiday-forest-walk-and-campfire--listing-b458099529f955dab765de56) — Sat, Dec 12 · 5:30 PM – 8:00 PM · Camp Milton Historic Preserve · All ages · Free · checked Nov 5.
