Other Group Programs and Reservations

We welcome your group to our center with discounted prices.  Each group of 10 or more paying individuals will receive a 50-cent discount on adult admissions.  Children ages 3-15 are admitted at the regular rate and children under 3 years of age are admitted free.  Seniors are also admitted at the same discounted rate of 50-cents off if with a group of 10 or more paying individuals.  Here are the rates for group admissions:

Infants (0-2 years old)   Free
Children (3-15 yo)         $5.95* (group from Asheville) / $6.95* (group from outside Asheville)
Adults (16-64 yo)           $7.45* (group from Asheville) / $10.45* (group from outside Asheville)
Seniors (64+ yo)            $6.45* (group from Asheville) / $9.45* (group from outside Asheville)

*Plus applicable state sales tax

We ask each group, designated as a group of ten or more paying participants, to collect all admission fees from every member of your group so that we have one payment only per group. Individual participants paying for themselves at our front desk will pay full admission rates ($10.95/person). Parents and children with memberships to the Friends of the WNC Nature Center or other non-profit organizations must pay admission at the same rate as all other participants within this reservation. Please ask all members of your party to also arrive at the same time prior to entering the Nature Center grounds. We have picnic areas for your use and lots of opportunities to take photographs.
