What visitors say
Beautiful hiking trails, very well maintained and clearly marked. Walked up to the fire tower and back. The animal exhibits were a plus, went for a gorgeous hike, got to see foxes, wolves, a bunch of birds of prey, and a bobcat all were…
Love going here! This trip was my second. Recommend going when it's warm out so that you can take full advantage of everything that is offered. The animal encounters are great and the river barge tour is very educational.
Best $7 I've ever spent! We loved the new playground, the herpetarium, and the wolves. Even on a chilly day, it was a wonderful opportunity to get the kids outside and explore all the fun newly constructed spots.
