Looking to have a wild time this weekend that is also family-friendly? That can be tough to find but we do know of at least one park in Williams, Arizona that gives you the chance to see some incredible creatures and have the experience of a lifetime! Welcome to Bearizona Park, a little-known wildlife park in Arizona.
This is Bearizona! A wildlife park in Arizona that allows you to see bears and other wildlife living in a natural habitat.
This park allows you to slowly drive three miles through the natural forest in Williams to observe a variety of wildlife doing all kinds of things in a natural habitat.
The drive starts here. Buckle up, make sure your windows are clean and up, and keep your doors locked! It's a bit like Jurassic Park but without the dinosaurs that can stomp on your car.
Speaking from experience when my family and I drove through here, it was like a self-driven safari. Not only did the kids have fun but we adults did, too!
During the drive through this bear park in Williams, AZ, you'll get to animals native to Arizona going about their usual day. You'll find some just hanging out...
...napping...
...snacking...
...and playing!
If you prefer having someone else drive, you can opt to hop aboard the bus tour, which can also allow you to feed select animals and get an unobstructed view from the huge windows.
The park also hosts shows and events, such as the Birds of Prey show that allows you to learn about and see a variety of birds up close.
If your kids (or you) are hoping to get a little more friendly with the animals, you can at Fort Bearizona. Here, you can see some of the animals in a more traditional zoo-like setting and even pet some in the Barnyard!
