Greeneyes Wildlife Preserve, located off Kelly Park Rd, allows hikers to picnic and observe wildlife among slash pine trees. The green interpretative trail, "What's Underneath Your Feet," showcases animals that may utilize gopher tortoise burrows among the property. Along with wildlife, visitors can spot the property's namesake flower, the native Florida Greeneyes (Berlandiera subacaulis), known for blooms with bright yellow petals and a green center disk.
