OUR VISITOR CENTER IS CLOSED
To ensure the health and safety of our guests and volunteers, the Crane Trust Nature and Visitor Center is temporarily closed. In the meantime, please enjoy our hiking trails. Our trails however, are now open! Click HERE to view the trail map.
Watch here and on our Facebook page for information about the nature and visitor center's reopening.
BUT OUR WORK GOES ON
We exist to protect and maintain the physical, hydrological and biological integrity of the Big Bend area of the Platte River so it continues to function as a life support system for whooping cranes, sandhill cranes and other migratory bird species. With your help we can make a difference. Learn more and get involved.
