LOST ISLAND PRAIRIE WETLAND NATURE CENTER:
Visit the Lost Island Nature Center located north of Ruthven, IA. Found in the middle of Iowa’s natural
lakes region, the center is located in Lost Island-Huston County Park. The regional facility serves as a site
for public information, educational programs and interpretive displays. We believe that the conservation of
our natural resources tomorrow depends upon the education of our citizens today.
