It’s time to get up close and personal with nature!

The Upper Highland Lakes Nature Center is  located in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, just north of Burnet, TX on the Reveille Peak Ranch.

We offer customized hikes and Discovering Nature Activities for organized groups of all ages.  The biological and geological diversity of the area offers a wide range of opportunities to learn about the special nature of the Hill Country.
