Trail’s End Restaurant Reopening

Trail’s End Restaurant has been reimagined as a quick-service restaurant, with a menu that has both individual-sized entrees to enjoy in the restaurant’s seating area, as well as family-sized entrees and sides that you can bring back to your cabin or campsite.

The interior of the restaurant has a fresh new look, a rustic theme with warm wooden furnishings, beamed ceilings, and accents that make it fit well within the overall theme of Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campgrounds.
