Entertain the Kids

A Carousel for Missoula
A Carousel for Missoula is one of the first fully hand-carved carousels to be built in the United States since the Great Depression. From little more than dreams, hard work and love, a carousel was created by hundreds of volunteers. The Carousel has 38 horses and two chariots. The chariots allow easy access for wheelchairs; people with disabilities are always welcome to ride free on the Carousel.

Dragon Hollow is a magical play land adjacent to A Carousel for Missoula.

The play area is free for all to use from dawn to dusk each day.
