Ogden Nature Center

Welcome to the Ogden Nature Center

Located in the heart of Ogden, you'll find a 152-acre nature preserve and education center open to the public year-round. Visitors enjoy 1.5 miles of walking trails, picnic areas, tree houses, bird blinds and an exhibit of live birds of prey. The preserve is a hot spot for birding. Two of Utah's greenest buildings are on site to teach about sustainable structures. A unique gift shop is located in the Visitor Center.

The Ogden Nature Center offers a wide variety of classes & workshops for all ages including art, photography, birding, wildlife in Utah, outdoor recreation, conservation, sustainability, summer camps and more.

Amidst the beautiful backdrop of easy meadows and a restful glen, the Ogden Nature Center's 2009 Summer Concerts are underway.  This year's musical talent is amazing!  So grab a blanket and picnic, and come enjoy some of the best sounds of the summer in the great outdoors.  Two concerts left:  Round Mountain - July 30 - 7 pm,  The Lovell Sisters - August 28 - 7 pm -- All concerts held rain or shine!

This year we are offering box dinner options for concerts in July and August. 

 
Summer Camps

Do your kids love creepy crawlies and wildflowers?  How about long summer days in the great outdoors, exploring open spaces and learning some science just for fun?  The Ogden Nature Center's summer camp program offers week-long day camps (some with an overnighter under the stars) for preschoolers through teens.  Our nature-savvy team of environmental educators teach campers throughout the week, creating lasting childhood memories -- outside and in nature!  For information regarding camp dates for specific ages, please refer to our calendar of events for June, July and August.  If you have questions or would like to make a camp reservation, please call 801-621-7595.
