Open 361 Days a Year: Admissions 10:00am – 3:30pm; park closes at 4:30pm
Due to significant flooding and impassable roads in our region from Tropical Storm Helene, the WNC Nature Center is temporarily CLOSED.
All of our animals are safe and accounted for, and there is minimal damage to the habitats. However, Swannanoa River Road and the main bridge to the Nature Center were washed away, and it will take time to reopen. We will undoubtedly need your support as we rebuild.
Donations can be made at www.wildwnc.org/donate.
