The grounds include steel walkways and renovated bridges designed for a safe, immersive visitor experience in all seasons, supported by recent structural and site upgrades. A 4,200-square-foot lodge provides a gift shop, restrooms, and a fully equipped commercial restaurant with seating across indoor, lounge, and outdoor areas.
