Be sure to check in at the Powell Visitor Center upon your arrival. We'll supply you with maps and trail guide booklets for the hiking trails. We'll also provide a map for the Botanical Gardens and provide information about the many features within its 18-acre fenced garden including the Maxie Templeton Cactus Museum. After hiking, you can take care of all of your vacation shopping needs at the Gift Shop, visit the Mining Exhibit, and make a stop at the Bird Blind to see which of the grassland birds that might have flown in.
