| J.D. and Annie S. Hays Nature Preserve was donated to the city of Huntsville in January 2000 by the people that its namesake comes from. It is approximately 540 acres of beautiful woods, bottomland, and farmland. Within its boundaries, can be found a serene setting for picnicking, canoeing, and hiking. It is a wonderful place to get away from the hustle and bustle of Huntsville. | |
