Families can journey through the glowing forest in their own vehicle, or board the open-air Santa's Holiday Train or tractor-drawn holiday wagons. Afterwards, kids can visit Kringle's General Store to meet Santa Claus, deliver wish letters to the North Pole mailbox, and browse whimsical holiday toys, handmade fudge, and piping hot cocoa.
