Looking to get outside and commune with nature? Live in an urban environment and not sure where exactly that nature is? (Hey, it happens.) The National Wildlife Federation’s Nature Find aims to get you on your feet and out the door.

Hit up the Nature Find web site, enter your zip code, city, or state, and filter by what sort of activities/site types you are looking for. Your results show up on an interactive Google Map which gives further information about each activity/site, including their event schedule (where applicable).

With activities and site types such as walking, cycling, fishing, parks, lakes, trails, and zoos, you’re bound to find something of interest that will get you out of the house and one with nature.
