I am a bit confused, but that is nothing new.
1. Where is this Nature Preserve and where is the entrance?
2. How long is the hike on this trail?

I'm already looking forward to see what ALEMORKAM comes up with from this new 2-story observation tower.

From the article: "That’s generally the philosophy behind The Villages’ newest outdoor attraction, which opens Friday in conjunction with the next-door Atlas Canine Recreation Park in the southeastern area of the community."

So it seems it is out by the new dog park. "It's not open yet but it consists of two large fenced in areas. Located off of moyers loop just past Belglade CC. The road is not open yet but it can be seen from the Golf Course."
the new dog park south of 466A looks great [7/30/15 totv thread]

Stopped by to take an outside peak at it yesterday. There is a wooden fence around the area with a closed gate for now until it opens up later in the week. From the parking lot it is about a 100 yard walk over a concrete walking path through a grassy area to the start of the elevated wooden walkway. The walkway and overlook is about another 150 - 200 yards long along the water way and wet lands. Quite nice but it is not a hiking trail...more like a scenic view of the preserve.
Thanks Morse family!
