Good Fences in Wild Woods




Ever so slowly we entered, step by step along the wooden boardwalk all the way deep into, the Hanifi Family Wild Woods for Good Fences today!





This brand new addition is quickly becoming the most popular north woods playground around town.

Welcome come one, come all, but come to the wildest, most entertaining woods ever to grace the Minnesota Zoo in Apple Valley, Minnesota.


To get there you must first cross this bridge!
(actually there is another secret way to enter, but we're not telling our little munchkins that.  Oh no! They must discover their own discovery deep into the wild woods.)



A new nature based play area for young and old adventurers! 



Look closely, the fencing surrounding this wild wood area is built to be unnoticed! 
Preserving the appeal of nature and not fencing! 




How genius to have timbers about for anyone to build their own little hut or fence, or whatever creative idea they have!



Just imagine, if this could be a real campground too.  I think the zoo may need to adopt such and overnight adventure in the future!



"Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better."
Albert Einstein

Build away children, let your imaginations soar!



Tucked away throughout are musical and exercising equipment to enjoy too!
(I only posted photos with a fence in it!)



The fence behind this happy munchkin is the fencing that surrounds the playground.

So if you ever get the chance to visit the Minnesota Zoo in Apple Valley this is just one of the many reasons to do it!
