Five Mile Drive and Wapato Park Closed

This just in …

Due to inclement weather, Five Mile Drive (including Fort Nisqually) has been closed and Wapato Park has also been gated for the public’s safety. Pedestrians are advised to refrain from accessing these park areas until further notice.

The Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium, Boathouse and park bowl are not affected by the closure of Five Mile Drive and are currently open for business.

Visitors are advised to visit the Park District’s website for updates regarding park and facility closures at www.metroparkstacoma.org.

Be careful out there, kids.
