- Brief History/Description: The Severson Dells Nature Center is housed in a converted Deer Lodge situated on a 369-acre county forest preserve. The Education Center includes a library, bookstore, classroom, conference room, and display area. A butterfly garden near the Education Center consists of over 50 plant species. The forest preserve features 2-1/2 miles of self-guided nature trails, and a hard-surfaced trail, 2/3 of a mile in length, which is accessible year-round. Guided walks are held frequently throughout the year for the general public, and small groups may arrange special guided walks by contacting the Nature Center.
