A 1,800-acre wildlife conservation center where families drive a 9.5-mile scenic route through open pastures with giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, and over 50 other species roaming freely. Kids can hand-feed giraffes from the car window which is an absolute highlight. Behind-the-scenes tours and the Children’s Animal Center offer closer encounters. It is significantly more immersive than a traditional zoo because the animals roam across natural Hill Country terrain.
