Welcome to the beautiful Athey Nature Area, a 10 acre natural area under the conservatorship of Keep Victoria Beautiful and part of the City of Victoria’s park system.  The Area is home to many species of native Texas trees, plants and animals.  Enjoy the virtual tour and come visit us.  We are located at the intersection of Vine Street, Roseland and Independence Drive in Victoria, Texas. 

Come visit our nature information deck on the backside of the historic Hiller house, pick up nature information materials and educational games for students of all ages.  Enjoy the ADA path through the Athey Nature Area or take the primitive nature trail through the Athey Woods where you will see deer and native flora.
