Located in Mystic, CT, the Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center is a combination wildlife sanctuary, natural history museum, and educational facility highlighting the habitats of southeastern Connecticut. Our mission is to inspire and nurture appreciation and scientific understanding of the natural world and foster a personal environmental ethic.

We offer a variety of interesting and informative environmental education programs and hikes for all ages, year-round. Our attractions include exhibits in our Natural History Museum, a Nature Center Store featuring gifts and books for outdoor enthusiasts of all ages, and our Nature Preschool. We maintain an interconnected system of hiking trails on land owned by the Denison Homestead and Avalonia Land Conservancy.

We are open 7 days a week, year round. The DPNC is located on the Denison Homestead. The Denison Homestead is also home to the Denison Homestead Museum and the Denison Farm Market.
