A Capital Wheel, Countryside Farms & Waterfront Fun — Family Fun in Prince George's County

Prince George's County gives families a genuine mix without the DC crowds — a ride on the Capital Wheel and an afternoon at Topgolf at National Harbor, then a countryside horseback ride or a hands-on visit to an animal farm. With ice rinks, aquatics centers, and nature trails scattered across the county, there's a different kind of family day out in every direction.
