The Adventure Playscape is six acres of climb-higher, run-farther, stay-longer energy designed for all ages. This is outdoor play at a whole new scale. You don’t just visit once. You explore it differently every time and the adventure grows with your child.
Exploration PlacePlay. Refuel. Repeat.
Graze is an exciting addition to the Adventure Playscape and a meaningful expansion of what dining looks like at Exploration Place. While Snack Lab continues to offer quick drinks and grab-and-go favorites inside, Graze brings something new to the experience – hot, freshly prepared flatbread pizzas, perfectly crisp tots, creamy ice cream and cold fountain drinks, all served right where the action is. It’s still easy and family-friendly, just elevated. The kind of food that feels thoughtfully made, satisfying and worthy of a full day of play.
