Visitors are greeted with views of a re-established Missouri prairie (planted in January 2016). Trails go through gentle hills of grassland and mixed species woods that feature the state champion American Hornbeam and several massive old growth White Oaks. Scott’s Branch Creek and a small spring add an aquatic element.

From I-70 in Columbia, take the Stadium Blvd. Exit (124) south 1 mile to a right onto Broadway. Go 0.4 mile to the first traffic light, turn left onto Fairview Road and go 1 mile to a right on Bray Avenue, then 0.4 mile to a right onto Cunningham Road for a short block straight into the area parking lot.

Two trails looping through the area provide options as to distance to walk and habitats to experience. The .56 mile long east loop trail begins just north of the parking lot. There is a cut-off leading up from the creek that may be taken to shorten the walk.
