It certainly is a boon for the whole city to have a facility like this.

If you are from Edmonton or Calgary or visiting this awesome little attraction is totally worth the drive. With a newly renovated (2016) river tube ride coarse this place was serious fun for the whole family. Tubes are available for rent for a measly $5/day. I wouldn't even recommend bringing your own tube as so if the walls do have a bit of sharp edge and at that price not worth the risk of damaging your own tubes. There is a concession stand and a phillipino food truck on location so you don't even have to worry about packing lunch for the day. There is ample room to set up camp near the tube ride. We picked an arena shaded by trees at the bottom near the concession area. If you prefer you can also bring your own food and snacks. My one area of concern is the limited bathroom and change room on site although despite being there on an extremely busy Sunday summer day there was never to crazy a line.

We drove 2 hours for a long day or floating and chilling, but we ended up only staying an hour or so. We did have to move off of the beach area because our umbrella was too big. Like really, wth!

Also very dangerous, there was children throwing around rocks and mud in the swimming area, hitting people. And one kid ended up in ER because the rocks in the river, do not come here!

As an avid animal enthusiast (AKA Crazy Cat Lady), there is always that moral struggle between wild animals in captivity, and promoting awareness, preservation, and just simply getting to see these amazing animals up close and personal. With that said, 5 stars certainly does not imply perfection in this situation. I am not too sure how I managed to not know of this place, having spent a few summers with my aunt who worked as a year-round Kindergarten teacher in Innisfail. So when my BF mentioned that he would be interested in checking it out, I was totally up for it, and SUPER excited!! I wasn't too sure what to expect as we walked in through the main entrance. It was pretty busy as the debit/credit machines were apparently not working. Thank goodness we had cash, so we were able to pay our $20/each admission price and walk right in. There are options available to get a more intimate experience with certain animals (bears, cats, beavers). We elected not to particulate in these, as we have a very cautious appreciation for these kinds of animals (either that or I have watched one too many episodes of Fatal Attraction on Animal Planet). Nonetheless, the enclosures are set up in such a way that you can get pretty up close and personal with these animals anyway. Several enclosures had feeding machines where you could pay a loonie to have some food fall out close to the gait and watch the animals eat (the camel in particular seemed to be a big fan of this!). We had to run back to the gift shop to get change (would have been nice if they would have mentioned that when we came in, but no biggie). Many of the animals got close enough that you could touch them through the gait. For myself, this is awesome - but I would recommend that parents keep a very close eye on the little ones, since those tiny limbs can fit pretty well through the fences, and you just never know what could happen - this isn't your typically zoo where there are concrete barriers at every enclosure to prevent anyone from getting close to the animals. Several of the animals were visibly stressed out, and were pacing back in forth. We would try to admire these ones from a bit farther away to try not to bother them as much. This is pretty common, I would say for zoos/wildlife parks. After listening to the 'caretakers' speech during a big cat show, it was clear that they have a sincere passion for education and wildlife preservation. They clearly care deeply for all the animals, and seem truly dedicated to improving the welfare of these amazing creatures throughout the world. In my opinion, the experience was totally worth it, and I wouldn't hesitate for one instant to make visiting the Discovery Wildlife Park an annual tradition.

The prices are reasonable for a day out with the family that proved unique. Having gone on a rainy day and having a 6 mo old with us, we rented a golf cart... So worth it!!!! It allows you to go through all the animals a bit faster, and then go back for a second visit if you'd like. The animal shows are very informative and help put to rest some of the fables. It is just soooooo awesome how they train the Bears. We choose to have a picture taken with the massive grizzly bear. It allows one to get up close and personal. The income from the pictures help them pay for upkeep of the park. There is actually a really nice diversity of animals as well. Make sure you take some change to buy food to feed your choice of animals. If you enjoy social media, they do an awesome job staying in touch on Facebook.
