Amazing adventure - Amazing adventure. My oldest daughter loves wolves so for her birthday we decided to check this place out. It was worth the money. We got to see all 4 wolves that are currently housed there. Staff were super friendly and answered all our questions. They gave a lot of information about wolves and how beneficial they are to the ecosystems.

Well worth it!! - We had such a great time learning all about wolves and their importance to a healthy ecosystem. The animals were absolutely beautiful and you can tell they’re well cared for. Only thing I could recommend is to make sure to tell people that they’ll need a 4 wheel drive vehicle to get up to the sanctuary. I barely made it in my 2 wheel drive truck. Other than that, we loved every bit of our experience. Thank you!!

What amazing animals. - Most importantly, the sanctuary demonstrates the care and focus on the wolves and education. It didn’t feel commercial. The wolves are in nice wooded enclosures and come to visit willingly. The educational aspect of the tour was really great. I enjoyed the lecture and learned so much. The wolves are incredibly beautiful and as ambassadors for wolf preservation, they are doing a wonderful job. I am so glad we had this experience and it’s def something I would do again.

You will not be disappointed we really enjoyed see all the wolves! A must see! - We highly recommend doing this trip! We learned so much not just about wolfs, but other animals that are effective by having and not having wolves. The wolves we did see were beautiful and magnificent creatures. Our guide was amazing and knowledgeable.

Great experience! - Great guide very knowledgeable with lots of educational information about wolves. I learned a number of new things about wolves. We were lucky to see all four wolves the sanctuary currently cares for. I didn‘t expect to see any wolves as it was one of the hottest days of the year, but all the wolves were visible. The sanctuary provided plenty of water to keep us hydrated. I love to return in the future as the wolf population in the sanctuary fluctuates. I recommend this experience.
