The Woodlands is also a great place to get back to nature. It has more than 180 miles of hike-and-bike trails, the 1,700 acre Mitchell Nature Preserve and the Riva Row Boat House, where you can rent kayaks. To get around The Woodlands, climb aboard The Woodlands Trolleys, a free service with stops throughout Town Center. Or enjoy air-conditioned water taxi along The Woodlands Waterway.
In November, The Woodlands hosts some of the region's outstanding holiday celebrations: Lighting of the Doves, International Winter on the Waterway festival and the region's largest ice rink.
