Clinton Community Nature Center
(CCNC) is a non-profit organization that seeks to conserve our land and historic features while developing a place for the appreciation, enjoyment, and study of nature.
A truly delightful place to walk shady trails and enjoy the great outdoors. Butterflies, dragonflies, birds, squirrels and even deer can be seen there. There is a pond, rustic trails and bridges, wildflowers, and trees, trees, trees...also a playground and an amphitheater. A wonderful jewel of a place in Clinton, MS.

So happy to get in a little hiking and nature at this wonderful park. I loved how it felt so wild and natural yet is well maintained and had signs identifying the trees and plants.

What a gift in the middle in Clinton! The Nature Center is well cared for, inviting and peaceful. The woods are wonderful to walk through and the butterfly area is inviting and lovely.

Absolute Peace. If you need an escape from it all and don’t want to go far then the Clinton Community Nature Center is the SPOT! From the migration of the monarch butterflies, to the scampering of new born deer the Clinton Community Nature Center is most definitely a hidden gem right in your own backyard.
