At ZOO Ljubljana catch the seal show, help out feeding the animals, or conquer your fear of spiders and snakes by holding them in your hands. Situated in natural forest surroundings, the zoo offers plenty of workshops and family-friendly activities. Kids can use brushes to stroke goats, small pigs, and sheep in the petting zoo or play on trampolines in the jungle gym. The safari restaurant offers a wide selection of local ice cream and quick, hot meals. Do not miss the meerkat mansion, and after your visit consider a walk in the woodland behind the zoo.

From an animal view point this is a horrible zoo. Most animals have small, boring enclosures. So many animals with stereotypical behaviour. Not to mention some very intelligent species are kept So...

The zoo is easy to get to using a bus which is nice. It's medium sized but a big part of it is empty space which may or may not be filled one day; as is it feels a bit weird to have certain animals...

Such a wonderful experience, we came around 4.30pm, so we had about 2.5hrs until closing time and it was just enough to leisurely walk through, we also saw sea lions 🦭 being fed at 5pm (unfortunately only 5mins but still a great show), it was also perfect timing to avoid the biggest heat of the day. The toilets by the entrance are nice, otherwise you gave to use the portable ones. We also took a photo at the booth by the restaurant for 3€ and it was totally worth it :) So many animals had babies! We’d love to see more snakes tho. Overall a great day and amazing experience.

Very nice mid-size zoo park with a lot of animals and nicely organized trails. Some of the most interesting animals are: lions elephant (just one) giraffes tigers lynx moose... Most animals have big enough quarters, but some animals should have bigger quarters - like lions, elephant, bears and especially wolves. You need about 3-4 hours to go through the entire zoo, depending on how long you stay with each animal and if you return to revisit your favorite animals. There is a small restaurant in the middle of the zoo with a view of giraffes and small pond and beside the children's playground. Plus is also a free parking place that is just at the entrance.
