Overview

Olympic Game Farm is a drive-through wildlife facility in Sequim, Washington, where visitors remain in their personal vehicles while observing animals in large outdoor enclosures. The farm originated in the 1950s as a training ground for animal actors, housing creatures that appeared in Disney productions and other films. It spans over 80 acres of pastureland and forest on the Olympic Peninsula. The drive-through route allows guests to encounter bison, elk, llamas, and various deer species at close proximity. The animals are accustomed to human interaction, and the farm permits feeding specific animal-safe bread sold on-site from vehicles. It remains a privately operated venue that focuses on the legacy of its history as a wildlife film studio base. The landscape features open plains and riverfront access, reflecting the natural environment of the Pacific Northwest.

Insider tips

Keep your car windows open only as much as necessary to feed the animals and prevent them from entering the vehicle.

Purchase the approved animal-safe bread at the gate, as feeding outside food is strictly prohibited for animal safety.

Clean your vehicle exterior before arriving to avoid damage from curious animals rubbing against the car paint.

What to avoid

Do not roll windows down completely when large animals like bison approach the vehicle, as they can cause significant damage to mirrors and doors.

Good to know

Closed annually during the winter months; generally open from late spring through early autumn.

Etiquette

Remain inside your vehicle at all times while on the drive-through tour; do not honk or attempt to exit the car.
