Washington’s Northwest Trek is the premier wildlife park of the Pacific Northwest, offering youngsters (and kids at heart) a special glimpse into the lives of the bison, wolves and deer who also call our state home. Located at11610 Trek Drive East in Eatonville, it’s a great way for people of all ages to get up close and personal looks at our wildlife. And while the animal tour is taken from a cozy trolley car, one part of Northwest Trek requires your active participation. Very active.

Several of the courses include a zip line through the air.
