North Boulevard Town Square

What a great outdoor spot to go to an event at! Benches, space, trees, and just so much. I have only been in the area a few times, but there seems to be something going on most of the time here. It is a great place to stop and walk around. And there are many restaurants, museums, the Cane Center, and other things to see and do while in the area.

What a great place to host a local event that benefits so many. The venue was awesome as it was well planned out by the organizers and sponsors. Born to Run is an event that should touch everyone’s life.
It was a great turn out of runners and walkers who wanted to support this cause. Race route was well thought out as it featured a scenic route. There was plenty of food and water, Gatorade or coffee drink. I will definitely be doing this again next year!!!!

Nice area with beautiful views and lots of local bars. Also you can access the River Center.

Went to the Downtown Baton Rouge Festival of Lights in the town square. It was really fun and beautiful!

Baton Rouge is doing a great job by constructing the boulevard. A great place to walk with family. At one side you will find tje old capitol, simply beautiful.

Galvez Plaza

Great place for a festival or live band.
But L@5 needs to diversify their selection.

Central meeting place for downtown Baton Rouge. Many city sponsored events locate here. Lots of restaurants and entertainment are within walking distance of here. And a nice place to people watch.

small space make people have a great time.. many a sunny day have been spent here for a concert or just taking in the sun

Cant beat Free music and event. Had some grilled oysters .they were Great!! Great honey bars just plain fun

Great spot local for homeless folks to get a free charge at night!

Demopolis Public Square

This evening was the lighting of the tree downtown Demopolis.🎄This is one of the Xmas on the river events with the Tiger Tones

Nice square in old part of town. They had holiday shopping set up when I was there.

Demopolis Public Square was a nice experience, definitely worth the time. I wasn't even aware of the nice additions, and seeing these antiques was very enjoyable.

Very nice!!! Lots of Vendors with a great variety of selections. Music was an added bonus. Always enjoy going to the Downtown park.

Beautiful morning for our local farmers market.  Lots of homegrown produce. Venders with speciality items too.  Jewelry, soaps, crafts and lots of other things too.

Town Square Park

We went to Town Square Park for the first of the annual Live at 5 concert series.  It was very enjoyable.  There were numerous food and drink vendors set up.  I would recommend this place as a place to relax.

There was outdoor vendors there til 4. Need more but good stuff.  We got veggies from a really nice man from oloh.

Went to the Farmer's Market.  Bought a few things and went for a walk on sidewalks. It was nice and relaxing.

A great place for events. Communities can get together here. The traffic is slow and safe. There is bike parking as well. The farmer's market is here every Thursday, which is a great way to find local treats, and ingredients you won't find anywhere else. It's within walking distance of various eateries, attractions, and government offices downtown, so you can stop by when you're in the area.

Was there for the Christmas tree lighting. ❤️

Birmingham Botanical Gardens

Absolutely stunning place, of course we came in the Fall but there was a lot still blooming. I can only imagine what Spring time looks like up here!  It's huge! Could easily spend all day here if you're a nature lover like myself just taking in the wonderful sights and the magnificent smells. Ended up leaving with some plants and it's Free to walk in. Mobile and surrounding places need to take note. Will definitely be  back

Absolutely delightful place to visit. It is well organized, it has a nice mix of trail like hikes and flowery gardens, some of them consisting of fruits and vegetables. It’s even better when you consider it is entirely free, as all these cultural spaces should always be. They’ve done a great job at organizing the plant life in different sections. Wonderful destination to spend a few hours, and there’s an area with restaurants and shops just 2 minutes away by car. %100 recommended you visit these gardens, I will surely stop by every time I’m in town. A walk around here enjoying nature is good for your health and good for the soul.

Lovely place for a stroll and a quick activity for the whole family! The gardens are well take care of and there are numerous areas to explore, my favorite wad the rose gardens. My one issue was that there were no maps to keep track of where you were, or I just didn’t know where to look.

Beautiful garden to visit and explore for any occasion. It's free entry, full of gorgeous plants to take pictures of and with, and has plenty of swings, benches, and shaded areas to take a break by.
If you're passing through the area or need a break from traveling on a long road trip, definitely a good spot to stretch your legs.

Beautiful gardens, easy access, easy parking, great gift shop.
Perfect to hike, run, checking out the vegetation. Visited on a Monday had the place to ourselves. Grounds keepers super friendly and knowledgeable. Best part garden visit is free!

Global Wildlife Center

This was really nice. I didn't know what to expect. It is about a 1:15 long ride around a nature preserve with hundreds/thousands of animals. We bought a family bucket of feed which worked well with the 2 kids we had with us. It was an enjoyable experience. Maybe this is appropriately priced, but I thought just a tad high - maybe I'm cheap.

Highly recommend! Family enjoyed this trip. We decided to do the private pinzer tour and it did not disappoint. We were able to go wherever the animals were as most of them were of the road a little bit. I would recommend buying 2 buckets of feed if you do the private tour. You will need it!

We had a fantastic time my daughter got the private tour for us and it was definitely worth the money. Our tour guide was one of a kind she was full of information and taught us a lot! You won't be disappointed it's a one of a kind experience

We absolutely loved this place! Best time to go is 9am! It's breakfast time. Even though it's hot in Louisiana, still the best time to go. My little girl loved being able to feed and pet the animals from the wagon!

A nice place to bring the kids. Not too far from New Orleans. Definitely bring water and a fan. The ride itself was not expensive but it doesn’t include the food. For a family of 7 we got the sack and it lasted the entire ride.

Oak Mountain State Park

We visited the park twice in October/2023. First time we hiked the Rattlesnake Ridge and we actually almost stepped in a rattlesnake in the trail. Second time, We did the Lake trail by bike and it was a great experience. That was a few Fall colors. It must be prettier by November.
The park is very well maintained, bathrooms were clean, there are showers and grills around. Great place to spend the day with family and kids too.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Oak Mountain State Park in Birmingham, and it was an unforgettable outdoor experience.

Don't miss the opportunity to swim or paddle in the pristine lakes; it's a great way to cool off during the summer months.

A glorious place to hike. The park is dog friendly, and kid friendly. There was plenty of parking, and the restrooms were very clean. Stay the path and you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking views like these.

The kings chair trail makes for a moderate hike.  Distance is about 7.89 km  with a detour @ the Overlook. It took us almost 3 hours. A swim at the lake And a picnic was the best way to conclude a successful day with family.
Good walking/ hiking shoes highly recommend.
The best way to get to the kings chair is to Start Blue trail at North Trailhead take to Kings Chair out and back continue on Blue trail to Red Blue connector. Then Red trail back to trailhead.

Beautiful park, great location near local shops. Many amenities were closed. Bird rescue exhibit was neat. Playground is nice.

Bearizona Wildlife Park

Amazing safari style animal park. Animals are well kept, and they have a big territory to roam around. We drove thru 2 times and got to see more animals than the first time. Take your time, and a lot to see there. There are restaurants, gift shops, clean restrooms, and walk through zoo as well. Definitely recommend it and will return.

This is a neat drive through animal adventure as well as a walk through animal adventure. I went on a Sunday. I feel $35 is a bit steep for an adult. It's kind of small and I expected more animals for the price. The drive section can be frustrating when it's busy as people just stop for a very long time to take photos. As well as the bear loops getting locked in from too much traffic and needing to merge back in just to get past. The exhibits were nice, and I enjoyed reading all the info. Only rating 4* because of the difficulties getting through the driving portion in a timely manner (they should limit the amount of cars going through at a time), the price, and the overall size. I enjoyed tossing a fish into the otters. They have a large gift shop as well as a restaurant and bar. They have a coffee stand outside as well. There was another shop near the entrance, but the music was so loud and overstimulating that I walked in and walked right back out. It's nice you can go through the drive multiple times.

What a wonderful place! My family and I visited after seeing the Grand Canyon and we just had the most wonderful time. We did the wildlife drive 3 times.. all of the animals are so healthy and curious! We saw so much. The gift shop is amazing and the food is great! One of the best experiences I’ve ever had traveling. All of the staff are so nice too!

Bearizona was AMAZING! It was so cool to drive through the park and have the animals come up to your car. Staff made sure that the areas you had to have your windows up, that windows were up and everyone was kept safe. I would highly recommend anyone of any age going here. They also have a nice walk through zoo that looks like they’re still working on adding exhibits to. Cost was $30/person and well worth it!

We loved visiting Bearizona. We were the first ones at the gate when they opened, got right behind the feeding truck which was Awesome! We were the first ones into the walk in park and all the animals were waking up for the day and ready to strut their stuff for us. They have a wonderful variety of animals from Arctic Fox to big healthy turkeys! All the animals seemed well taken care of and happy. There were plenty of spots to grab a bite to eat or shop for a souvenir. Great place. Highly recommend, especially if you have little ones.

Out of Africa Wildlife Park

Such a cool place! I don't know what I expected going in but it exceeded all of my expectations! In my opinion it's better than the zoo. All of the employees were kind, knowledgeable, and approachable. The animals are well-cared for and treated with love and respect. Lots of family memories made! Highly recommend the safari. Shout out to our bus driver Gary Montana for giving my son a wolf mask on our last bus ride, it made his day!

I wish we were able to stay longer! I've never been able to get this close to animals before. They seemed extremely healthy and well cared for. The tigers splash was an amazing show and it was all done with happy positive things for the tiger! We will definitely be coming back to do the zip line.

🦁We are an Annual Passholder Family🐅
(Just renewed!)

Aulani in the gift shop is always so super sweet. She welcomes us with Hello/Bye Family (AP)!

The entire staff is great and very knowledgeable about all the animals. It's a joy getting to know them all.  We love feeding time, and we love to visit "Apache" (a scarlet macaw). Come say hello! We were happy to get him a Xmas gift, and we can't wait until he gets it!

See you all soon, family! 🙋🏽‍♀️

Absolutely with the visit! Everything about this park is cool. People are friendly and informative. The animals are awesome! Tiger splash was with the ticket price all together. The gift shop is incredibly affordable and not overpriced at all. Amazing time with the family! Would love to visit again.

Out of Africa? Out of this world! Definitely a must-do if you have a car full of bored kids needing an adventurous stop to burn off energy and see some animals. And yes, you really should kiss a Giraffe while there. ;)

Montana Wild - FWP

What an awesome education center! Because it is a place that seeks to educate the public, you are able to touch bones, antlers, and fur. Lots of Montana fish are present in the tanks. So much to see and do! A brisk walk around the fishing lake was so nice. We did not go with school aged children, but it seemed there was a scavenger hunt available to them.

I don't know why this is marked as a hiking area, it's a visitor center... Amazing exhibits for all ages, loved the fish tanks. There are lots of things you can touch, like bones and antlers, and also more detailed informational reading for adults. Spent a long time looking through the bird field guide that goes along with the pictures.

I took an injured fledgling here and the staff was so kind, helpful and passionate. I brought my young kids with me to drop the bird off and we were there for another hour just looking/playing and learning. (Bonus: they happened to be hosting a bird expo and we got to see some incredible ones up close.) I am so impressed with this organization for their caretaking and conservation efforts.

This place is outstanding , great place to see all the wild animals in Montana.
