"In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." - John Muir

Escape the trappings of today’s hectic world by immersing yourself in nature at the Kreher Preserve & Nature Center. Revel in the natural beauty that surrounds you, listen to the soothing sounds of birds singing as they replace the noise of busy life. Keep your eyes out for the various animals and reptiles that call the Nature Center home. Explore the natural springs and pond or take a trip back in time when you visit the old home site and barn. Come marvel at the wonders of the natural world – located in our own backyard just a few miles from downtown Auburn, Alabama. A piece of paradise nestled between Auburn and Opelika, the Nature Center is a haven for discovery and learning, offering area residents, families and children a wide variety of nature-based experiences and programs.
