Trained elephants and sea lions give amazing performances. But the Zoo in Basel became famous on account of its gorillas and rhinoceroses and its many successes in animal breeding.

The Basel Zoo is a green oasis in the center of town, only a few minutes’ walk from the train station. Stroll through the unique park and listen to the twittering of the flamingo colony or watch the lions, which lounge behind glass in the sun, separated from the visitors by only a few inches. Discover the kangaroos and bush-chickens in their new environment “Australis” or immerse yourself in the fascinating under-water-world of the Vivarium.

Opening hours:
Open throughout the year!
