What To Expect

Fort Bearizona is a walk thru area located at the end of the drive thru. Keep your eyes peeled as you wander the paths of Fort Bearizona. You might spot one of our free roaming animals like our peacocks. Skunks and porcupines might wander right across your feet as part of one of our many animal encounters. Larger animals like jaguars, grizzly bears and otters are viewable for as long as you like.

The animals in the Bearizona Barnyard are always in need of some back scratches. Stop in to get your fill of goats, turkeys and other farm animals. (open Friday-Sunday ONLY during September-May).
