Viera Wetlands

Event Description

Leader: David Hartgrove 386-235-1249

Located between the Moccasin Island Tract of the River Lakes Conservation Area and the Brevard Zoo, the Viera Wetlands are a popular site for birders, photographers, and eco-tourists. The Ritch Grissom Memorial Wetlands are accessible by automobile, making the sites popular among those who find the rigors of hiking trails and warm temperatures daunting. Even better, viewing from the comfort and safety of an automobile screens visitors from the view of birds and wildlife, enhancing the experience. For information check the website link.
