Step aboard comfortable, open-air trams and explore our past and present while winding through the canyon floor. You'll pass towering bluffs and waterfalls, crossing creek beds by way of beautifully-crafted stone bridges and often splashing through spring-fed waters. All tram tours make a stop at the Glory Hole, a spectacular blue-green pool where some of our largest trout reside. This scenic and informational tour appeals to guests of all ages. Trams are wheelchair accessible. Please advise when making reservations. Two touring options are available.
GLORY HOLE TRAM TOUR: (Available after 5:00pm by special reservation only.)
Approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes in length, this tour highlights the very best of the park while making a brief stop to feed trout at the Glory Hole before the return trip to the Welcome Center. Points of interest along the way include an Amish-built covered bridge, 60' tall Thunder Falls, the Great Spirit Rock Shelter and more.
