One of our favorite free adventures is a visit to our local Lehi Cabela’s.  Cabela’s is one of the largest hunting outfitters in the world. We have visited Cabela’s in Lehi a hundred times because it is a quick, free, animal adventure.
Fish Tank
They have a large fish tank that my boys spend at least 10 minutes watching the trout and catfish swim around. Â You can get right up by the glass and watch the huge fish swim. There are also fish in front of the animal mountain. You used to be able to feed them, but every time we visit now there is no fish food.
Animals
Cabelas has tons of animal displays to see. In the Lehi Cabela’s there is a large animal mountain right in the middle of the store. You can walk all the way around and spot the different animals. There is a large room with Utah animals, and there is also a large area with a bunch of African animals just beyond the fishing supplies area. Lehi Cabela’s also has a bunch of animals on the walls all through the store.
Upstairs
Yes, there is an upstairs in the Cabela’s in Lehi. There is an airplane on display that you can look at near the cafe. We have never eaten at the cafe, but have hear the food is delicious. There is a candy shop where you can get a free fudge sample. Right next to the candy shop, there is an Old West shoot out game. It costs a few dollars to play, but is so fun. It is usually the one activity we splurge on here. If you have young ones, you can sit them up so they can hold the rifle a little easier and take a turn shooting at the targets.
If you are looking for an easy indoor adventure, Cabelas is a great place to go and you don’t have to spend a dime! We have lots of ideas on free activities throughout Utah.
Location
This Cabela’s in Lehi is located off of the Highland/Alpine exit next to the Traverse Mountain Outlets. The address is 2502 W Cabela’s Blvd, Lehi, UT. There is also a Cabela’s in Farmington that is smaller, but still a fun visit. See if there is a Cabelas near you. Check out their locations here.
Excellent post.! I love everything at Cabela’s Outlet Stores it is a fun place to walk around..!!
WOW! We had no idea they did such fun things. We will have to check them out. Thank you so much for sharing.
We love Cabelas too. On Saturday’s they offer free activities for kids that are sometimes really really fun. Also, at Christmas time, on a couple of Saturdays in December, you can get free pictures with Santa. They also do birthday parties for $40 and you get goodie bags, a decorated conference room, and shooting range tokens!
We really like the room with the talking guide and all the trophy bucks! Also the mountain with the polar bear in the middle is amazing. Is there any North American animal that doesn’t appear on that mountain?
