I love Yoga under the oaks! It's so tranquil and there's usually a nice breeze. It feels good to be one with nature, and in mind, body and soul! The yoga relieves a lot of tension and pain that I have. Jackie and Hanna are awesome instructors. The nature center has beautiful trails to walk as well. There's something there for everyone.
Great for AM runs, picnicks, walking and bird watching :).My 4 yr. old enjoyed it!!!!🌵🌞🍁

Recent clearing of exotic vegetation indicates the staff is dedicated to making McAllen Nature Center better and better for people and wildlife. We will definitely put this on our list of places to visit in the Lower Rio Grande Valley.
