This is a really nice zoo. When we went, it was what was called a "Free Day" where admission was free and you could walk right on through the gates! Thre are all types of animals here, and some of them are really close. The Bear area is actually on the National Register of Historic Places, built in 1918. The only thing I did not like about the Denver Zoo was the fact that the paths were VERY confusing. Once you take a path, it circles into another, then another, then another. We got turned around so many times, it wasn't even funny. If you bring small children, keep them close because it is easy to get lost here. This zoo is located right inside the city off 23rd street, about a block from the Gates Planetarium and the Denver Museum of Nature and Science (which I plan to do on my next trip). Be sure to check the website below for a list of the free days...it will save you some money.

 A leopard by sswagner Always a fun place for children and adults alike, the zoo is in a nice outdoor setting in one of the city's parks near downtown. While the admission fee is getting somewhat steep, there are some scheduled free days throughout the year. Leave a Comment

by Psychokiwi Anyone visiting the city should stop by the Denver Zoo. When I went, two of the monkeys were fightning each other. Maybe you'll be able to witness something as exciting. The Zoo is a large attraction. It has multiple exhibits and gives Denver a great quality. There are places for birds, reptiles, mammals, plants, and many more.

The nation’s fourth most popular is home to more than 3500 animals representing 685 species. Highlights include Primate Panorama, a seven-acre facility with 29 different species of primates, ranging from a 6-ounce pygmy marmoset to the 619-lb. lowland gorilla Koundu, the largest gorilla in any zoo in the world. Tropical Discovery is an entire rainforest under glass with over 1,200 animals, tropical streams and waterfalls, temple ruins, and an offshore coral reef. Ulaq (U-lock) and Berit (Bear-it), two adorable polar bear cubs that were born on December 28, 1998, frolic in a special area of Northern Shores, an exhibit that replicates the Arctic Circle with sea lions and penguins. Look out for interactive adventures such as African dancing on the plaza, Native American stories on wolves or Japanese fan dancing near the cranes. April-September: 9am-6pm daily; October-March: 10am-5pm daily. Leave a Comment

We love the Denver Zoo! The Zoo is a resource for wildlife conservation through their many programs, so every visit helps save animals in the wild all over the world. Lorikeet Adventure is always fun (10-4), but go early or the birds are full and don't want to eat anymore. They also host lots of events at the zoo year round; the most popular are Boo at the Zoo October 31 and November 1 and Zoo Lights December 11 – January 3. Open every day of the year Summer Hours (March 1 - November 1) Admissions Open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Grounds Close at 6 p.m Winter Hours (November 2 - February 28) Admissions Open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Grounds Close at 5 p.m. Below are summer and winter rates. It's a little cheaper in the winter months and a lot less crowded! Ages 12-64 $12.00 $9.00 Ages 65+ $9.00 $7.00 Ages 3-11 $7.00 $5.00 2 and under Free Free Leave a Comment Address: 2300 Steele StreetPhone: (303) 376-4800Website: denverzoo.org
