Birkdale is an outdoor shopping center with plenty of great restaurants. It also has outdoor music and places to hangout, as well as a movie theater.
The Center features 40 miles of trails for mountain biking and trail racing, whitewater channels for rafting and kayaking that transform into ice skating and curling rinks in winter, treetop courses for ropes and zip lining, and a 70-acre dog park. Food and beverages are available at three restaurants and through a full-service catering department.
