Monte Sano Nature Preserve, Protected forest area in Huntsville, Alabama, US.
Monte Sano Nature Preserve spans 2,140 acres of forested land with 22 miles of trails traversing through hardwood forests, wetlands, and limestone formations.
The Civilian Conservation Corps established Monte Sano State Park in the 1930s, incorporating this land into a larger protected natural area.
Native American tribes inhabited the mountain before European settlers arrived, recognizing the value of its mineral springs and natural resources.
The preserve includes parking areas, restrooms, and marked trails connecting to Monte Sano State Park and Burritt on the Mountain trail networks.
The Old Railroad Bed Trail follows an original railway path, featuring waterfalls and stone bridge supports from the nineteenth century transportation system.
