Family Fun at Oak Knoll Wildlife Sanctuary

Ready for some outdoor adventure? We’ve got all kinds of fun programs and activities for you and your family.

Nature Play Area

Ever want to know what it feels like to be a nesting bird? Hop in Oak Knoll’s giant (5’ tall and 8’ wide!) human-made bird nest constructed out of sticks and vines. There’s also Sid the Snake Stump Jump, an enchanted pathway hidden by foliage, and a teepee frame waiting for more sticks and logs.

The stump jump, nest, and walkway sit behind the Nature Center and carriage barn. To get to the fort, as well as a magical-home building area, take Puddingstone Trail beyond the photovoltaic panels. Stay to the left at the Marsh Trail and go left again on the Talaquega Trail.

Vacation Week Programs

Join the adventure and explore Oak Knoll in winter and spring with our school vacation week program for children ages 7-11. See upcoming programs
