The South Mountain Environmental Education Center aims to acquaint and educate visitors to the South Mountain Park about its ecology, flora and fauna, and history. An ideal first stop before beginning your excursion of the park, the center features an impressive collection of exhibits and interpretive boards that explore the natural, environmental, and cultural history of this municipal park that sprawls across 17,000 acres (6879.65 hectares). The entrance to the visitor center is the starting point of the picturesque Judith Tunell Trail, which winds past water fountains, ramadas, a beautiful bridge, and interpretive signs.
