The Lazy 5 Ranch is a privately owned exotic animal drive thru park that offers a 3.5 mile safari through the gently sloping pasturelands of Piedmont, North Carolina. While visiting the Lazy 5 Ranch you will have the opportunity to view over 750 animals from six different continents. You can see these animals from the safety of your own car or call for reservations on our horse drawn wagons. And be sure to bring your camera! This is a drive-through experience unique to North Carolina. There is no other collection of animals like this in the Southeast.

Due to the extreme heat the
last wagon ride this Saturday, July 24th will be leaving
at 12:45 and we will NOT be offering wagon rides on
Sunday July 25th.
Due to the heat wave we are experiencing, Lazy 5 will
not offer wagon rides if the temperature reaches 95
degrees or above. Although our horses are in top
physical condition, the heat is too extreme. We would
love for everyone to come out in the mornings when it is
cooler and take a wagon ride! If you have any questions,
please let us know. And remember to call ahead for
reservations on the wagons!
Horse Drawn Wagon Rides or Drive Through in your Own Car!
*For safety reasons we do not allow pets in the park*
