Bearizona is located in Williams, AZ, approximately 1 hour from the Grand Canyon National Park South Rim Entrance, and is a MUST see for any visitor to Northern Arizona. This is NOT a typical ‘zoo’, it is a 160 acre property dedicated to responsible wildlife management, conservation and education, while allowing visitors to view these amazing animals in their natural habitat, and learn about the different animals role in the ecosystem, and why it’s important to keep wild animals ‘wild’.
DRIVE THROUGH WILDLIFE PARK
Drive your vehicle through a Ponderosa Forest and view the animals in their natural habitats along this more than 3 mile loop. Take your time, drive slowly to capture photos and videos, and keep your windows rolled up at all times, for your safety and the safety of the animals. Plan for at least 3 hours for your entire visit to Bearizona. And remember, you can drive through as many times as you want during one visit, as long as you don’t leave the park!
FORT BEARIZONA-WALK THROUGH
Don’t miss out on Fort Bearizona, a separate area located at the end of the 3 mile drive through, that provides even more opportunities for wildlife viewing, education, shows, animal encounters and more. Always visit the Bearizona Website for up to date information about tickets, schedules, and more.
