“It’s like walking through a rainforest in Asia, without having to travel half way around the world…”

Bamboo Forest, also called Wilderness Park, is a 26 plus acre area in the city limits of Prattville.  ere in a southern forest, bamboo from central China has quietly invaded and regenerates itself in almost undisturbed silence.

Plant life unfamiliar to most southerners flourishes in this now protected environment.  The bamboo reaches dramatic heights much like the magnificent bamboo habitats of the Panda of China…  two radically different biomes flourishing in a quiet refuge from today’s hectic life.
