Like the Brazoria National Wildlife Refuge, only smaller. The trails are not dedicated to hiking, but rather a road desgined as an auto tour. You can see a lot of birds in their natural settings. It is nice, especially since it is free, but not something necessarily than a hiker would want to do. The looping road is very short, maybe a mile or so.
