Fall Fest
Fall Fest at Dogwood Canyon
October 25-31
Join us to celebrate all that fall has to offer in the Ozarks! You will be able to get up close and personal to some of the animals that call Dogwood Canyon home and learn new skills at various demonstrations. Enjoy hot cider at the Chuckwagon Pavilion and visit the Little Indian Stables to meet one of our horses. You won't want to miss out on these exciting fall activities!
