2. Hike the Ozarks!
Branson, MO offers some of the most incredible hiking and trails in the Midwest!
This may be one of Branson’s best kept secrets, we have a TON of really great hiking trails!
You could easily spend an entire week here and barely have time to hit all the amazing trails, many with views of one of our 2 beautiful lakes, and even one with a lovely waterfall!
The best thing about spending a day hiking is that almost all hiking trails are completely free!
3. World-Class Fishing!
Home to 3 incredible lakes, Branson offers world-class fishing from Trout to Bass!
Looking for something more relaxing?
Maybe rent a boat from one of the area marinas, and spend a day exploring the beautiful Table Rock Lake and fishing.
For those looking for a more in dept fishing experience we recommend hiring a fishing expert like Eric Prey with Focused Fishing – a full-service fishing guide.
4. Incredible Shopping!
The shopping possibilities and options in the area are second-to-none!
Shop to your heart’s content at one of the area’s many malls!
From outlets to boutiques, there’s stores and shops for everyone in Branson!
To save even more on your shopping and dining, be sure to get your FREE Branson Guest Card when you get into town!
5. Ziplining!
There are more than a half-dozen different zipline and zipline-style rides and attractions in Branson to choose from!
There are several options around the Branson area to zipline, depending of what type of experience you are going for.
For beginners, I recommend checking out Vigilante at Shepherd of the Hills, this is a single line trip from the tower down.
If you are looking for something a little more adventurous, the thrilling Adventure Ziplines in the heart of Branson (near Tanger Outlet Mall), is a seven-line experience that takes around 3 hours.
For thrill seekers looking for the “biggest” and most all encompassing experience you should check out Wolfe Mountain’s Zipline which is north of Branson off of Highway 65.
6. Silver Dollar City Theme Park
Offering food, roller coasters, LIVE shows, shopping, and more – Silver Dollar City is a “must-do” activity that is great for Spring Break!
Spring Ride Days from March 13-31 (Wed-Sun) offers the perfect destination for kids of all ages, and plenty of shows and shopping for those not interested in riding rides!
This huge theme park is definitely big enough to fill up a good 2 days in your schedule and luckily we offer a great deal on 2-day tickets!
