Wow! This was our first time at Dogwood Canyon and we had an incredible time! We took the tram tour in the morning- the waterfalls and wildlife were incredible! I honestly didn’t expect to be so up close to the bison and elk, it was an amazing experience! Our host Debbee was a lot of fun and very kind! We also went on the one hour horseback tour in the afternoon which I would highly recommend! This was our first time ever going and the guides were all extremely helpful, especially Stephanie! I was super nervous, but excited, and they take care to set you up with the right horse for your experience level. Special shoutout to Ghost for being patient with this newbie!

This is the most beautiful place to be for all of the seasons. I try to go once a year, if not more. The staff here is always so helpful and make you feel like you're family. The restaurant has wonderful food (bison burger is my go-to). The park is so clean and very well maintained. The environment is quiet, safe and calming to be in nature. Definitely make it a point on the map to come visit. Horseback riding & tram rides are highly recommended!

Amazing Experience at Dogwood Canyon with Guide Joe! We had an absolutely wonderful time at Dogwood Canyon, thanks to our guide Joe! He made the entire tour so much fun with his great mix of facts, stories, and jokes. The kids were engaged the whole time and enjoyed every minute of the tram ride. What really stood out was Joe’s personalized touch—he even shared interesting notes and facts about famous people who had visited the canyon before. It made the experience feel unique and special. Overall, it was an unforgettable visit, and Joe played a huge role in making it so memorable. Highly recommend taking the tour with him if you get the chance! 💯🌿🦌

We visited Dogwood Canyon Nature Park on Dec 22. We had such a great time! The park was gorgeous and so well-maintained. Our tour guide was so informative and friendly. He made the experience a 10/10. We purchased tram tickets so we could see the wildlife up close, and it was well worth it.

Gorgeous park. Multiple waterfalls, fish throughout the water, restrooms, beautiful bridges, and a cool artifact section. We did not eat at the restaurant but it smelled great. Wonder hospitality from all employees, but especially Park Ranger David P. He helped us get back to the front of the park when we were running late for a reservation. During the car ride he told us very interesting stories about his life and the park. Thanks to him we were able to check out the gift shop and make it to our next plan for the day! Thank you very much David! This is a must do if your visiting Branson or Springfield.
