Zoo Zurich

Bicycles, running bikes, kickboards, roller boards, roller skates, inline skates, scooters etc. are not allowed in Zoo Zurich. There is an unguarded parking area in front of the main entrance for the equipment. If you nevertheless wish to park them in a locked room, we charge a parking fee. Eating is allowed with the exception of the Masoala Rainforest. We also ask you to refrain from bringing your own food into the restaurants. In order to avoid endangering the health of the animals and encouraging them to beg for food, feeding is strictly forbidden in all areas of Zoo Zurich. Exceptions are the Lori aviary, where approved feed is sold, and the giraffe and porcupine feeds in the Lewa Savannah, accompanied by animal keepers. Smoking is permitted outdoors or in designated «smoking zones». Out of consideration for our animals and our Zoo visitors, smoking is prohibited in all buildings and animal houses and at the entrances to Zoo Zurich, the animal houses and the zoo restaurants as well as in walk-in animal enclosures (such as the Australia outdoor area or the Ibis Aviary). This also applies to e-cigarettes.
