Winter Wildland at Northwest Trek

Animals, decorations, winter magic. Included with admission and membership.

Breathe in the crisp mountain air and watch in delight as our animals play with holiday-themed treats and enrichments. Stroll paths laced with winter magic and decorations.

The animals can receive a wide variety of enrichment like cardboard gingerbread houses and paper chains. All the enrichments are thoughtfully crafted by staff, are holiday-themed, and filled with meatballs, veggies, chopped fruit, or other yummy items to attract skunks, lynx, beavers, and others to explore, investigate, and to encourage them to use their natural behaviors.

Take a Free-Roaming Area tour through the hushed winter stillness to spot elk, mountain goats and bison keeping warm. Sip hot chocolate, shop for unique holiday gifts in our gift shop, and burn off some energy at our Kids’ Trek nature-inspired playground. (Note: our playground may be closed if it’s frozen.)
