Wisconsin Dells Deer Park

  
The Wisconsin Deer Park has offered families visiting the Wisconsin Dells the chance to feed and touch deer up close for over 50 years. Serene absolutely loved it! Fearless as the deer towered several feet above her head, she tried to hug each and every one of the calm animals. The gift shop supplies crackers for feeding and Serene feed as many as she could by hand letting them lick her little fingers and she laughed in pure joy.

An original Dells attraction, the deer park sits on 40 acres of land with a four block walk that takes visitors around the edges of the public area to view the deer that walk openly around the area, and other animals (elk, bison, emus, llamas, lemurs and more) in large enclosures. In the winter months, the animals roam freely in a wooded area behind the public area of the park. When we visited the bucks antlers had grown large and majestic.
