Photos with Santa

Tell Santa what you want for Christmas and get your picture taken with the big guy on top of Santa's Mountain, a replica of the one featured in the movie. After the photo is taken, children have the opportunity to slide down the big red slide.

Appointments with Santa on Santa's Mountain are $10 each and include one printed photo. Additional photos can be purchased for $6 each when you make your appointment online or during your visit. 

Please note: If you want more than one photo taken with the same or different members of your group, you only need to book one appointment time!
