Adventure Awaits At Olympic Game Farm In Washington
Washington is home to some seriously impressive wildlife, most of which will never be seen by a human being. But if you happen to have a family full of animal lovers, there is a way you can get up-close-and-personal with both native wildlife and exotic mammals. Sequim’s Olympic Game Farm is a drive through wildlife exhibit, meaning the animals can (and do) come right up to your vehicle.
From the 1950s to the 1970s, the animal actors were housed and cared for here. But in 1972, after Roy Disney had passed away, the owners decided to care for the animals themselves and open the park to the public.
Your self-guided drive tour will take you through 84 acres of terrain filled with animals, many of which are not shy.
All proceeds from the farm's tourism go toward feeding and caring for the animals.
The only thing guests are allowed to feed the animals is wheat or whole grain bread. You can bring your own (it will be inspected) or purchase it at the farm. And don't worry, the animals are all fed a healthy, balanced diet daily, so they aren't relying on the bread for sustenance.
Some of their animals still make appearances in films on occasion, but most of them prefer to live lazy lives on the farm.
They're open daily from 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. Weekends are the busiest times, so try to go as early as possible (or stick to weekdays).
Children 5 and under are always free. Also, although it typically only takes about an hour to drive through the farm, tickets are good for the entire day of purchase.
Address: 1423 Ward Road, Sequim, WA, 98382
