Experience The Preserve

The Preserve is an interactive, educational drive thru adventure, hosted on over 100 acres next to the Animal Adventure Park. Owner Jordan Patch has opened the gates to his once private preserve, to share a new adventure with you:

Home to 100s of animals, your self-driven adventure will take you through grassland, scrub brush, and deep forests as you explore and experience geographically designated paddocks: Aussie Eurasia, The Americas, Africa & Giants of Africa.
