WildWoods

An elevated walkway takes you from the museum’s Terrace into the treetops where you can enjoy stunning views looking out over Wildwoods. From there, you can tailor your experience.

  • Walk through the two tree pods as you explore further into Wildwoods. The first pod represents a tuliptree flower and the second pod represents a fern.
  • Explore immersive and interactive exhibits for young children (Nature Stories) and tweens (Adventure Outpost).
  • See adventure turn to art in the Nature Gallery and throughout WildWoods, featuring permanent installations and rotating special exhibits.
  • Get a closer look at nature through special trailside experiences, including a sensory wall, animal tracks and tree bark molds.
  • Look for a variety of native plants, flowers and wildlife as the trails take you along the creek toward the wetland meadow and Isdell Wildlife Sanctuary.

WildWoods is open year-round, rain or shine, but may be closed due to inclement weather. WildWoods is suitable for all ages and all fitness levels. It includes ADA-accessible trails and experiences.
