At the Top of the World Ranch facility, we believe that the environment surrounding our treatment center is just as important as the Main Lodge or our residence. Our Ranch grounds provide acres of open space for residents to explore and connect with nature, as well as miles of hiking trails that wind through the surrounding forests.

About the Top of the World Ranch Grounds
There are many areas around the Main Lodge and residence to relax and take in the beauty of the Ranch and surrounding land. We have strategically placed contemplative area benches throughout our trails system. We have Mill Creek running through the property, along with many old-growth oaks and other hardwoods. Surprisingly many cedar trees also call the Ranch home. The serenity, the beauty, the outdoor activities, the physical, emotional and spiritual awakening while experiencing them can strengthen your recovery from addiction. The Ranch helps to awaken that which has been asleep and helps you open yourself up and begin healing. The hole in the soul begins to fill and heal as you spend time in nature.
The beautiful natural surroundings allow our clients to feel deeply, find their best selves, connect to a higher power and connect to others in a way that a more institutional setting simply cannot.
Our trail system offers a variety of terrain. Whether walking up and down the hills or along the flats of the creek, you will experience your private sanctuary. For those in better physical condition, we have mountain bikes to ride as well.
Our expansive Ranch grounds are also home to a variety of wildlife, including deer, geese, peacocks, and turkeys. Watching these animals roam free is an incredible experience and provides residents with a sense of peace and connection to nature. The Ranch grounds are also a great place to relax and enjoy the fresh air. We encourage all our residents to spend time outdoors and take in the natural beauty of our property.
How Nature Can Support Recovery

In other words, spending time in nature can help people reduce stress and anxiety, feel more positive, and better regulate their emotions. This can be incredibly helpful for people who are recovering from addiction, as managing emotions is often one of the biggest challenges faced by those in recovery.
