Not really a lot of nature. But lots of climbing and swinging in a maze. A train track on one side, a fire station on the other and an a-mazing park in between - my 3-year old son would nearly pee in his pants when a train went by and the fire engines were sitting outside while he was playing. There is a restroom on site if anyone in your family gets overly excited by fire engines and trains.
