El Dorado Nature Center: connecting people with nature in the city for over 40 years!
El Dorado Nature Center
Photography Policy
Due to the sensitive habitat at El Dorado Nature Center, and to protect the integrity of the trail system, only informal “vacation style” photography and videography is allowed.
Any photography/videography that is staged, posed, uses props, lights, reflectors or costumes is prohibited inside the Nature Center.
Visitors photographing off trails, in trees, lakes or stream, or blocking the trail from general patron use, will be asked to stop and possibly leave the Center.
Thank You,
Nature Center Staff
