The beautiful Nature and Visitor Center welcomes guests to the Crane Trust’s rare, protected lands year-round and to the great Sandhill Crane migration in the spring. Come explore nature trails, interactive exhibits, tourism information, and a unique gift shop and art gallery. 
Located at Interstate 80 Exit 305, the Center is open Monday through Saturday, 9am to 4pm. In addition to offering tours of one of the greatest spring migrations in the world, the Trust works year-round to protect and preserve nearly 10,000 acres of critical habitat. Crane Trust offers a variety of options in March to make your crane viewing experience truly magical.
