NORTHWEST TREK WILDLIFE PARK

BEAVER

Bear in mind the wild side of the Northwest is more than present throughout the forest here at ELKAMP EASTCREEK, but we don't advise getting too close to the critters that make up the wilderness in our backyard. If you're looking to experience the animals of the Pacific Northwest up close then there is no better place to do this than the Northwest Trek Wildlife Park. An easy 30 minute drive north of our campground and you'll be assured to see all the wildlife that makes up our precious corner of the world.

Insider's Guide to Northwest Trek Wildlife Park

Adorable baby animals plus our best tips for the tram tour, hidden gems and more.

Maegen Blue

By Maegen Blue

Published on: june 11, 2018.

Northwest Trek tram tour

“Whoa!” said my son, “I think that bison is looking at us !” We were on the Discovery Tram Tour at Northwest Trek Wildlife Park , and one bison in a group we were passing did seem to have its eye right on us.

Northwest Trek is an open-range zoo near Eatonville and the the tram tour is the highlight of any visit to the park. You’ll have plenty of “this-isn’t–like-a-regular-zoo” moments at Trek, where animals native to our region roam free or spend their days in large exhibits that mimic their natural habitats. Northwest Trek celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2015, opened an expansive kids' play area in 2016 and continues as a uniquely Northwest destination and a not-to-be-missed wild time for animal lovers of all ages.

Key highlights of a trip this summer include American bison calves born to Northwest Trek's resident animals in late spring and growing quickly. They are with their herd, roaming the park's hundreds of acres, and can be viewed from the tram tour. Animals include bison, elk, bighorn sheep and mountain goats (roaming freely); and grizzly bears, bobcats, wolves and eagles (in naturalistic exhibits).

“It’s always exciting for us to witness the joy and wonder on our visitors’ faces when they get to experience seeing a new calf or lamb for the first time,” Northwest Trek education curator Jessica Moore said.

In addition to riding the park’s tram, visitors can walk forested paths to view American black bears, a grizzly bear, Canada lynx, gray wolves, red foxes, beavers, a river otter and other animals.

Northwest Trek exists because of the generosity of Doc and Connie Hellyer, who donated the land to Metro Parks Tacoma with the goal of preserving a home for animals and teaching visitors to love nature. The park opened on July 17, 1975.  

Our family thinks Northwest Trek warrants a visit any day, especially if you have kids who love nature or animals or are entertaining guests from out of town. We’ve been going to Trek since our boys were small and we’ve learned a few tips and tricks to help you make the most of your visit.

1. Go early for best animal viewing

Animals at Trek tend to be more active early in the morning, particularly during warmer weather. If you arrive in the afternoon on a hot day, you’ll likely be there for nap time!

2. Time your tram

The highlight of your Trek visit will be the Discovery Tram Tour  through the park's 435 wild, free-roaming acres, a 50-minute, naturalist-narrated ride that gets you up close and personal with the animals in a truly unique way. You might see a trumpeter swan gliding on the lake, goats leaping in the meadow, or deer grazing on the hills. The animals are free to roam through the area, and every season at Trek offers something different. Late spring is the time to see baby animals, and late summer brings the sound of bugling elk.

Tram tours run every hour (10 a.m–6 p.m. during the summer) and you pick your time when you purchase admission.  Do not be late for your tram time, and make sure little ones have used the bathroom first. Though food isn’t generally allowed, the friendly driver will tell you that your small children are welcome to have their sippy cups and crackers. They want all their riders happy! Window seats are best, but you’ll get a good look at the action from any seat. The drivers are trained naturalists, and they’ll share lots of information about Trek and the animals.

You can also pay extra for a specialized tour , such as a Photo Tour or Keeper Tour.

3. Pack a picnic

There is food at Trek — think standard burgers and sandwiches — but we suggest packing a picnic. There are lots of tables near the front entrance.

4.  Dress for walking

In addition to the tram ride, Trek features a walking tour that is paved, making it wheelchair and stroller friendly, though there is one fairly steep slope down to the tram.  You’ll want comfortable shoes to be able to take it all in. Exhibits include raptors, such as eagles and turkey vultures; Cat Country, with bobcat, lynx, and cougar; and the Northwest Loop with bears, fox, wolves and coyotes. There are also wetland and forest animals.

5. Prepare your kids for this type of zoo

Note: If kids hear the word "zoo," they may be thinking lions and tigers. You may want to read some stories on area animals before you go, so your children understand what they'll be seeing.

6. Don’t miss the hidden gems

Don’t miss the E.H. Baker Cabin when you’re by the wolves. It’s a small cabin where kids can experience being scientists and (my boys’ favorite part), duck into a little tunnel where a window looks directly into the wolf exhibit.

If you have trouble seeing the bears, we’ve found they’re usually in the back. To find the cats, you often have to look up, up, up, into the trees.

The wetland and forest animals may not have the wow factor of some of the other creatures, but these exhibits are particularly nice for younger children because the animals are easy to spot and fun to watch. There is a small, underground section where you can see them going in and out of their homes, and there is an overlook where you can see some of them having a swim.

7. Talk to the naturalists

Take time to enjoy a trailside talk with a naturalist.  They often have some creatures or interesting exhibits with them. It’s a great chance for kids to ask questions.

8. Stop at the Discovery Center

Don’t miss the Cheney Discovery Center . It features educational exhibits, books, and puppets. There are also typically animal- or nature-themed crafts, and there is always a volunteer or naturalist on hand to answer questions and help out. It’s a nice stop if the kids are tired or you hit a rain shower. It can be hard to get kids out of here, so you may want to go after your tram ride.

9. Make a day of it — wild play time included

Trek really isn’t on the way to or from anything. Plan to make this a full-day outing. Kids won't let you miss Kids' Trek , the half-acre, adventure-themed playground opened in 2016. If needed, plan on having the kids passed out in the back seat when you head for home.

10. Zip wild into the trees

If you need more adventure, Trek offers five different high ropes courses suitable for various ages .  Admission to these is separate (and not cheap), but may be worth it if you need to bond with a thrill-seeking teen. (As of this writing, no one in our household has braved them!)

Our Visit To Northwest Trek Wildlife Park Near Mount Rainier

During a recent trip to Seattle for a family reunion, we had the opportunity to do some sightseeing around the Puyallup area. We rented a great Airbnb near Graham , Washington, close to my Aunt and Uncle’s house for a few days. Our extended family with kids of all ages wanted a fun half-day outdoor excursion to immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of the northwest and create lasting memories. On the recommendation of my Aunt, we decided to visit Northwest Trek Wildlife Park near Mount Rainer.

It was a wonderful experience, and we wanted to share it with the world! And here is a fun fact! Did you know that I was born and raised in Washington State?

In fact, both of my parents are from there, and most of our extended family is still in the greater Tacoma / Puyallup area. We try to travel there once every few years!

Northwest Trek Wildlife Park

Northwest Trek Wildlife Park is a 723-ace natural wildlife area near Mount Rainier’s base. It’s best described as a mix of a park, a wildlife preserve, and a zoo. Particularly, it offers a spectacular array of fun and engaging activities for families with kids of every age.

Just a few of the exciting things you can do at the park are watch many different native northwest animals such as grizzly bears, otters, and eagles, drive through a giant free-range preserve filled with animals, find and study the indigenous giant banana slug, and enjoy a forest-themed kids playground filled with nets, rope ladders, bridges, and slides.

Walking Paths At Northwest Trek Wildlife Park

Northwest Trek Wildlife Park has a network of excellent walking paths snaking throughout the park. Walking these paths is a fantastic way to get a feel for the natural majesty and beauty of the pacific northwest. The emerald green landscape is lush and filled with massive trees, delicate ferns, shady glens, crystal clear creeks, and bucolic ponds.

Map Of Northwest Trek Wildlife Park

You can download a map of the park, and its trails, here . It’s a great resource when navigating the park and planning your visit. In addition, I will also insert a copy here now.

Seeing The Animals At Northwest Trek Wildlife Park

The walking paths will lead you through a wonderfully designed set of natural enclosures that will get you breathtakingly close to all kinds of animals, large and small. 

Part of the path will lead through upper and lower deck viewing areas where you can see grizzly bears (brown bears) and black bears. Nearby are separate enclosures with red foxes, wolverines, and grey wolves.

Further along, is the “cat loop.” This trail takes you to several large areas inhabited by cougars, lynx, and bobcats. Another part of the walking trail takes you through beautiful enclosures designed to be both above and below water.

You can watch playful river otters, raccoons, skunks, porcupines, and beavers here. A trail branch is designated for birds called “Eagle Passage.” Also, they have several gorgeous bald and golden eagles, owls, and vultures here. These massive birds are regal and beautiful. Sadly, they cannot fly due to pre-existing injuries and are living their best lives at the park.

Animal Encounters at Northwest Trek Wildlife Park

When we went, the animals were active and easily visible. It was a warm summer day in late July, almost hot by Pacific Northwest standards. The river otters were fascinating to watch, with their limitless energy and desire to play.

Likewise, the aquatic displays are especially great for kids because they can get a close-up view of the river creatures. A massive grey wolf rested probably three feet from us, just beyond the glass viewing area. The wolverines darted to and fro. The weather was dry, and it hadn’t rained in a few days, so, unfortunately, the beloved and iconic banana slugs were in hiding, much to Matt’s dismay.

The cats were also lying back in the shade for the most part. Obviously, if we had gone earlier in the day when there was less heat, more of them would have been out and about. Nonetheless, we were able to catch a glimpse of most of them.

Northwest Trek Wildlife Park may be the only smallish park I have ever visited that is home to grizzly bears and wolves. It was a fantastic treat to see the vast array of animals, some of which you may only see in major metropolitan zoos and other world-class facilities.

Kids Trek Playground

The Kids Trek Playground is at the front of the park, near the main entrance and dining area. Kids Trek is a fun and well-designed playground. Specifically, it’s perfect for kids ages 3-8.

The playground is themed like a forest landscape. Its centerpiece is an impressive fake 20-foot tall hollow tree stump you can climb inside to access the upper level of the playground. In addition, there are rope nets and ladders connecting different areas, tunnels where small ones can crawl and explore, and several fun slides.

A charming little stream flows through the playground, allowing kids to get a little wet as they play safely. The area is a lot of fun, even for adventurous adults, and is a great place to blow off steam and wear the kids out. Also, its proximity to the dining area and restrooms makes it a perfect spot to spend time and enjoy the outdoors.

Above all, this was the biggest hit with my 3-year-old nephew!

Cheney Discovery Center

Located nearer the back of the park, the Cheney Discovery Center is an interpretive nature center packed with many fun things for younger kids to do and see. The building houses various reptiles, gophers, snakes, amphibians, banana slugs, and other creatures viewable in tanks. It’s got tons of puzzles and books to occupy small kids and educate them about the local flora and fauna. There is an extensive collection of animal-themed puppets and a stage where you host your own puppet show!

The Cheney Discovery Center is home to a large and diverse array of stuffed animals (the taxidermied kind) where kids can touch and learn about many small and large animals up close. Equally important, the King of the Invertebrates, the banana slug, is prominently represented. You can see them in tanks, watch videos about them, and read everything you ever wanted to know about these fascinating gastropods.

Furthermore, an on-site naturalist is available at the Center to guide you through the exhibits or answer any questions you or your children may have.

E.H. Baker Cabin 

Abutting the wolf enclosure is a building called the E.H. Baker Cabin. In this forest cabin, kids can crawl through a tunnel, explore a variety of educational tools about wolves, and become regular members of a wolf pack! There’s a natural wolf pelt to feel and an exhibit explaining how we can all do science daily.

This is an excellent place for kids to play, imagine, and channel their inner naturalist.

Self-Guided And Guided Driving Tours at Northwest Trek

Although we didn’t do this, I wanted to mention the driving tours. Northwest Trek Wildlife Park near Mount Rainier offers two types of driving tours through its 435-acre free-roam area. Both include park admission, so factor that into your decision.

In one, you drive your own vehicle, and the other, albeit much more costly, allows you to ride in theirs. The free-roam area is a game preserve inhabited by numerous animals that can move freely and graze across a large area of grass and woodlands. You can see Roosevelt elk, moose, bison, and mountain goats living in their natural habitat.

The Northwest Trek Wildlife Park Wild Drive

The Wild Drive is self-led and allows you to drive your car on designated roads throughout the free-roam area. The price is $90/group for non-members . The maximum group size is eight and includes the people in your vehicle. The tour is about an hour long. Reservations are required.

Park admission is included with this option, so it may actually be a way to save money if you have a large group.

Keeper Adventure Tour

The Keeper Adventure Tour is a guided jeep tour through the free-roam area. A park naturalist takes your group in a jeep on a guided tour. These tours are much more personalized and allow you to get closer to the animals wherever they might be grazing. The price is $90/per person for non-members .

The maximum group size is nine. The tour is about an hour and a half long. Reservations are required. All guests must be 5 or older to participate.

Northwest Trek Wildlife Park Tram Rides

A tram ride through the animal free roam area was once very popular in the park. As of this writing, the tram rides have been temporarily suspended. The park is replacing the legacy trams with new modern electric trams. The trams will, hopefully, again be available soon, with an anticipated launch date of September 2023.

The Zip Wild zip line course is also closed until further notice.

Honestly, we didn’t miss either of them and had a great time exploring the park on foot.

Plan Your Visit to Northwest Trek Wildlife Park

Without a doubt, Northwest Trek Wildlife Park near Mount Rainier is a great place to take your family. It offers so many different options for fun. It is a perfect way to explore the beautiful natural world of the Pacific Northwest. Walking through the park and watching the amazing animals will leave you with a sense of awe and reverence for nature.

Lastly, seeing the animals in the wild and learning about their life and habitat is a magical learning opportunity for your family. Playing at Kids Trek and exploring the Cheney Nature Center add to this beautiful park’s fun and excitement too. I highly recommend making Northwest Trek Wildlife Park a part of your trip to Mount Rainier, Seattle, Tacoma, or Washington State.

2022 Best Places to Camp: Top 10 in the Northwest

Best camping in the Northwest 2022.

With hundreds of miles of coastline and the mountains to match, the Northwest has some of the most distinct landscapes and camping experiences in the world. Pitch a tent beachside and explore the magnificent meeting of land and sea that is the Olympic Peninsula. Get the ropes out and send some premier climbing routes at Smith Rock State Park in Oregon. Or forget dirtbagging it altogether and go glamping in a modern cabin where craft beer and s’more ingredients are delivered to your door. However you camp, there’s a lifetime of spots waiting for you to find in the Northwest. Here’s a list of The Dyrt campers’ 10 favorites to help you start planning a trip to this rain-soaked wonderland.

1. Kalaloch Campground — Washington

The Kalaloch area of the Olympic Peninsula is an incredible coastal environment of sandy beaches and rocky headlands. Because these waters are protected as a marine sanctuary, a diversity of creatures call this section of Washington’s coastline home. Bring your binoculars and look for sea otters, dolphins, seals, and other marine mammals riding the waves just offshore. Back on land, the Tree of Life, not far from the campground, defies belief. Its bare roots straddle a gap in the cliffs, yet the tree manages to survive despite the lack of ground beneath it. The campground itself is located on a forested bluff in Olympic National Park, with good access down to the beach where tide pools wait to be explored. If you want to get away from camp, there are seven trailheads near Kalaloch up and down Highway 101 that will lead you to different beaches. The Dyrt camper Melinda W. has been coming here for 62 years — since she was two weeks old! Her advice? “If you get a chance, go.”

If you’re visiting in 2022, keep in mind that Ruby Beach will be closed from mid-June through mid-September due to a construction project.

Campground Details:

  • Number of sites: 170
  • RV sites: yes
  • Fires allowed: yes
  • Pets allowed: yes

2. Shi Shi Beach — Washington

Craving a camping experience that’s a little more adventurous than a stay at your typical developed campground? Shi Shi Beach offers epic backcountry camping on the coast of the Olympic Peninsula in Olympic National Park. It’s a two-mile hike from the trailhead to the camping area, where you can pitch your tent in the forest or on the beach and go exploring! Low tide is a good time to look for starfish and sea anemones in the tide pools. The beach is known to have epic sunsets that attract photographers, so be sure to settle in and watch the show. Keep in mind this is a backcountry experience in the Olympic Wilderness. You’ll have to carry everything with you and pack it all out in accordance with the Seven Principles of Leave No Trace. Special permits are also required to camp here.

But for many, like The Dyrt camper Jessica M. , the extra planning is worth it. “A short hike in brings you to a gorgeous secluded beach!” she says. “Camp sites are far enough apart that you feel like you have the place practically to yourself. No amenities but if you are looking for secluded beauty this place is for you!”

  • Price: free
  • Number of sites: dispersed
  • RV sites: no
  • Pets allowed: no

3. Silver Falls State Park — Oregon

Considered the crown jewel of Oregon’s state parks system, Silver Falls is best known for the 7.2-mile Trail of Ten Falls. This famous hike leads you through a canyon past a series of waterfalls, even taking you behind the 177-foot South Falls so you can experience an enormous waterfall from the inside-out. The Dyrt campers love the campground’s convenient location. “Beautifully forested and close to the waterfalls, the campground has all the features you could need,” Minta J . says in her 5-star review.

While dogs can’t join you on the Trail of Ten Falls, your furry friend is welcome on the rest of the park’s 35 miles of trails — just make sure they’re on a leash! The Dyrt camper Kathy B. recommends checking out the Upper North Falls hike if you have a dog in tow.

  • Price: $28-31
  • Number of sites: 48 electrical sites with water (18 sites open year round); 43 tent sites with water nearby (seasonal May-October), 14 cabins; 2 group camps (tent only)

4. City of Rocks Campground — Idaho

This backcountry byway takes its name from “the silent city” of unusual rock formations that dominate the landscape, attracting campers, climbers and outdoor enthusiasts. Explore City of Rocks National Reserve on a mountain bike or go searching for natural arches, towers and spires by foot on the many trails. Climbers will find themselves on hallowed ground, with over 600 routes to choose from. The campsites at City of Rocks are more than just a spot to crash. No two are alike and they’re spread throughout the reserve, tucked into nooks and crannies between outcrops of ancient granite. As a result, this is more of a dispersed camping vibe than the typical campground experience.

While there are a few sites that accommodate small and medium-size RVs, keep in mind that RVs are not allowed in many of the campsites at the reserve.

  • Number of sites: 64 campsites, 3 group sites
  • RV sites: yes, available at half the campsites

5. Fairholme Campground — Washington

Camp in Olympic National Park along the shores of Lake Crescent, known for its depth, clarity and brilliant blue-green color. Because the 12-mile-long lake has been isolated for so long, it supports two types of native trout that can be found nowhere else: the Beardslee rainbow and the Crescenti cutthroat. These unique fish provide anglers with a truly one-of-a-kind opportunity. If fishing isn’t your thing, no need to worry — this is the Olympic Peninsula, after all. Rent a boat, explore the park’s trails, picnic on the beach or grab a bite to eat at the lodge when it’s open in the summer.

Previously first-come, first-served, Fairholme Campground is now accepting reservations up to six months in advance for the 2022 summer camping season — so get booking today!

  • Price: $12-24
  • Number of sites: 88

6. Eklutna Lake Campground — Alaska

Set in the mountains just outside Anchorage, the centerpiece of Chugach State Park is picturesque Eklutna Lake. Known as “The Inland Sea,” the seven-mile-long glacially fed lake is ringed by wildflowers and dramatic mountain peaks, offering 15 miles of shoreline to explore and exactly the type of views campers have come to expect from Alaska. Spend the day discovering a network of hiking and biking trails, fish for brilliantly colored Dolly Varden trout, canoe or kayak the pristine lake, or trek into the tundra via the Twin Peaks Trail and look for Dall sheep!

The campground is more on the bare-bones side, with pit toilets, bear lockers, a picnic table and fire rings — definitely no RV hookups. But when the scenery is this good, you don’t need much else.

  • Price: $20 plus $5 per car for parking
  • Number of sites: 65
  • RV sites: no (double check)

7. Smith Rock State Park — Oregon

Deep river canyons and gnarly rock formations define this state park in central Oregon, just north of Bend. These features have helped make it one of the premiere climbing destinations in America, offering up thousands of climbs, including more than a thousand bolted routes. If keeping two feet on the ground is more your speed, there are plenty of trails to explore and wildlife to see. Keep an eye to the sky and you might spot a golden eagle or falcon, both of which can shut down climbing routes when they’re nesting. The camping area, a favorite spot among climbers, is spartan with bathrooms, showers and room for your tent — perfect for crashing after a long day on the wall or trail.

If you’re planning to camp here, keep in mind that RV camping and sleeping in your vehicle are prohibited (as are campfires). Pitching a tent is pretty much your only option.

Price: $8 Number of sites: dispersed within a designated area, 3 ADA campsites available RV sites: no Fires allowed: no Pets allowed: yes

8. Hoh Rain Forest — Washington

Located in Olympic National Park, this campground gives you the chance to pitch a tent in the heart of an enchanted, old-growth temperate rainforest. So many beautiful trees flourish here — including Douglas fir, red cedar, Sitka spruce, cottonwood and big leaf maple — and there are some ancients for you to discover. The Hoh River Trail, the most popular trail near the campground, offers 18 miles of wilderness hiking — 36 if you’re up for the full out-and-back. Hikers completing the journey will be rewarded with incredible views of Mount Olympus. There are plenty of camping areas along the way if you want to spend a night or two in the backcountry — just make sure to grab a permit.

Fun fact: The Hoh Rain Forest receives more than 140 inches of precipitation each year and summer temperatures rarely surpass the mid-70s. Be prepared for a cooler, moister camping experience.

  • Price: $24-48
  • Number of sites: 72

9. Lost Lake Resort Campground — Oregon

Incredible views of Mount Hood await campers at this resort and campground offering tent campsites, cabins, yurts, A-frames and lodge rooms. You’ll be smack dab in the middle of Mount Hood National Forest, which means there’s no shortage of hiking, fishing, paddling, swimming and birdwatching. Try the old-growth trail for a relaxing, family-friendly hike close to camp that has plenty of opportunities to learn about the area via interpretive signs set along the trail. In addition to boat and paddleboard rentals, Lost Lake Resort Campground has a well-stocked general store and a seasonal restaurant serving up tasty burgers.

The Dyrt camper Raphaela H. hits the nail on the head when she says Lost Lake “has that nostalgic, summer-camp vibe.”

  • Price: $27-32
  • Number of sites: 134

10. Bay Point Landing — Oregon

If you’re looking for a cozy — dare we say trendy — spot to soak up the southern Oregon coast, look no further than Bay Point Landing in Coos Bay. In addition to welcoming RVers with roomy sites and full hookups, Bay Point Landing rents modern Scandinavian-style cabins and Airstream suites to campers. Everyone who stays here has access to a heated saltwater pool, fitness center, lounge and general store that will deliver anything from wine to ice cream directly to your campsite. If all that wasn’t enough, there’s also a private beach, playground, bocce ball courts and more. It’s not exactly roughing it, but the relaxing, laid-back vibe is perfect when you’re taking a break from all the outdoor activities the area offers, like hiking at local state parks and beaches, fishing, kayaking, surfing and mountain biking.

If you enjoy good eats, you should know that Coos County is an under-the-radar foodie haven. Take a day to discover the area’s farms, markets and restaurants, some of which are part of the Wild Rivers Coast Food Trail.

Discover Northwest Trek’s Zip Wild Adventure Course

“What was your favorite part of the Zip Wild Adventure Course?”  I asked my nine-year-old son .  “When you got stuck in that skinny rope tunnel.  That was pretty funny!”   Of course, it was.

The funniest part is actually that I found myself still getting stuck on what was by then my third outing on Northwest Trek’s Zip Wild Adventure Course.  For whatever reason, the “challenge” part of this “zip line challenge course” seems to fade into the back of my mind while Zip line! takes over any available lucid space.

My first experience was on Zip Wild’s Adventure course in 2012.  I brought a small group of travel writers to experience this brand new attraction at Northwest Trek.  We suited up, filled out our waivers, and navigated a small practice course so we could familiarize ourselves with the ropes, carabiners, and zip line pulley.  Feeling we were trustworthy enough to proceed, the guides pointed us toward our initial challenge, a 30-foot climbing wall we’d need to scale to reach the first launching platform.  In a moment that can only be described as ‘ you’re never too far into your career to learn something new’ , I listened to my group and became the first participant to scale this wooden warden, eager to dive into this new venture.  It is here I will point out that I should have shifted from my leadership role to a ‘sweeper’ role.  After I took off, the group chickened out, and I was committed to 45 minutes of navigating through the forest canopy to its end, alone.  Facepalm!

My innate desire to mark a milestone birthday with something out of the ordinary brought me to my second Zip Wild adventure in 2013.  This time, I decided I was going higher, and harder.  A group of 13 of my most daring girlfriends came along and we suited up, passed the practice course, and headed into the trees.  The Sensation course is the most challenging and is for folks over 18 years of age and 4’7” and taller.  This is with good reason.  Swinging from landing platform to pirate net, Peter Pan-style, looks incredibly easy when actors do it.  For those of us with no formal Tarzan training or semblance of upper body strength, it becomes more of a “getting acquainted” session between groins and safety harnesses.  But with more work comes bigger rewards and the zip lines are higher, longer, and more thrilling.

It was another birthday party that brought me to the Zip Wild Adventure Course a third time just this month.  On this occasion my son was too young to try the higher courses, and needed to be with a parent, so we tried the Discovery course.  This course is for folks eight years old and up.  Its climbing wall to the first platform is only 14 feet high.  The zip lines are milder, but the rope tunnels and tightropes prove just as challenging, to spite being closer to the forest floor.

If you’re ready for an adventure, enjoy a solid challenge and a nice adrenaline rush, the Zip Wild Adventure Course is worth every penny.

Costs depend on which of the five courses you choose, and are in addition to the entry fee into Northwest Trek itself.  Reservations are recommended and can be made online.  Participants should show up 30 minutes prior to their reservation time in order to fill out waivers and put on gear.  Close-toed shoes are required.  Guides check equipment, certify participants are ready to go, and follow groups out onto courses.

Sights of Elektrostal, Moscow region

2024 Author : Harold Hamphrey | [email protected] . Last modified: 2023-12-17 10:06

In the Moscow region there is a small cozy town Elektrostal. Its sights for the most part have no historical value due to the fact that the city has a relatively small history. But for a visiting tourist or city dweller, they will be of interest. There is something to see, where to go to have an exciting leisure time.

Today the population of the city is 158 thousand people. Until the beginning of the 20th century there were several small workers' settlements here. After the opening of the electrometallurgical and equipment factories, the place began to be called the natural boundary of Calm. The construction of the railway made this settlement accessible, and workers and families flocked here to earn money. In 1925, the station was named Elektrostal, and the rapid increase in population allowed the village to receive the status of a city.

The founder of the city is a prominent Russian industrialist Nikolai Vtorov. It was he who opened the plant here, creating, in fact, a city-forming enterprise that is still operating. In Soviet times, it was a closed facility, and it was not easy to get to work here.

Today Elektrostal is a promising industrial city with a great future and a heroic past. It bears the proud name "City of Military and Labor Glory".

You can learn about the sights of Elektrostal with descriptions and photos here. There are places for walking, outdoor activities and cultural development.

sights of the electric steel of the Moscow region

Those who come to the city by train are met by a monument to the metallurgist. It was installed in November 2017 for the 100th anniversary of the Elektrostal plant. The attraction is made in the style of constructivism. The monument quickly won the love of the townspeople, because this city is supported by ordinary workers.

Elektrostal attractions photo with description

Elektrost altsy and the founding father of the plant, Nikolai Vtorov, are honored. In 2002, a monument was opened in honor of him, which became a landmark of the city of Elektrostal. The bronze sculpture is installed on the site where once stood a monument to the leader of the world proletariat, V. I. Lenin. Times change, characters change. Today, the plant, founded a century ago, is the largest in Russia. Vtorov himself, whose fortune was estimated at 60 million rubles in gold, according to Forbes magazine, was the owner of the largest capital at the beginning of the century. He was a banker, an industrialist, an entrepreneur, a man of action.

The monument was erected byinitiative of the townspeople who wished to perpetuate the monument to the great man.

One of the popular places for spending weekends and evenings among citizens and guests of the city is the Park of Culture and Leisure. Here you can ride attractions for children and adults, play slot machines, rollerblade or bike. The park is divided into two zones. Fans of unhurried walks in the fresh air make a promenade on the Quiet Alley, and those who prefer outdoor activities flock to the Entertainment Alley. The park has a summer stage, where concerts and cafes are regularly held.

Elektrostal attractions

Until 1999, there was no central museum among the attractions of Elektrostal in the Moscow Region. The expositions were exhibited in schools, the house of culture, in factory museums. The city was closed, so there was no large influx of tourists and visitors. The appearance of the historical and art museum made it possible for residents and guests of the city to learn a lot of useful information about their native land, the formation of the production process, and the difficult years of the war. The exposition consists of paintings by local artists, historical artifacts, household items, documents, books and much more. The collection is updated regularly. It also hosts outdoor exhibitions, which are always popular with the townspeople.

One of the main attractions of Elektrostal, the photo of which is available to almost every resident or visitor, is the Main Alley. On herpassers-by like to stroll along shady paths, townspeople rest by the fountain after a hard shift at the plant. Flower beds are the decoration of the alley. In 2006, a flower festival was held here for the first time, which has become traditional. Each enterprise of the city and private individuals give residents a real composition of fresh flowers, which pleases with bright colors all summer long. A riot of colors, aromas and a flight of fantasy reigns here. Walking through the park, you can see Snow White with a basket, a bright well, a multi-tiered cake made from fresh flowers, hearts of lovers or a fabulous house. It is almost impossible not to take a photo against the background of these compositions.

There is a cultural center in the city. It hosts performances by local creative teams and visiting stars, performances and circus performances.

In 1971, the ice palace "Crystal" was opened in the city. Almost immediately, a children's and youth hockey team was organized, which gained sports fame. This is the home sports arena for the Elektrostal hockey team. Matches of different levels are held on the ice.

There are sections for children who go in for hockey or figure skating. Citizens come here with their families to cheer for their favorite team or go ice skating.

Elektrostal is a city with a heroic past. During the war years, more than 12 thousand citizens came to the recruiting station and went to the front to defend their homeland. Almost 4 thousand of them did not return from the battle. To these heroesdedicated to the memorial complex with the inextinguishable Eternal Flame, opened in 1968

But the electricians took part in the war in Afghanistan and Chechnya. By decision of the city authorities, their memory is also immortalized in the memorial complex.

It has become a good tradition for newlyweds to lay flowers at this monument.

attractions of the city of Elektrostal

In 1999, a museum and exhibition complex was opened in the city, where, in addition to the exhibition hall, there are numerous circles for children, classes for young people, and a creative workshop. Various festivals, exhibitions, city holidays and other events are held within the walls and on the territory of the complex, which attract many spectators.

Elektrostal attractions

Listing the sights of Elektrostal, it is impossible not to mention the temples. There are several of them in the city: the church of St. John of Kronstadt, St. Andrew's Church, the hospital church of St. Panteleimon. Another new church is being built. In appearance, the temples look ancient, monumental, in the Novgorod style. But they were all built at the end of the 20th century.

Let there be no ancient artifacts among the sights of Elektrostal. But on the other hand, all of them are connected with the history of the city, with everyday work and military exploits of ordinary residents.
