Your journey into the heart of the animal world starts here.
Getting Here
We are right alongside the rail trail between Unity Road East and Haldibrook road. Many people spend the day riding the trail and jump off to visit the zoo before continuing on. There are many areas to lock a bicycle and park your off terrain vehicles. Bring a packed lunch and enjoy one of our many picnic areas!
The Haldimand Chippewa trail connects the Hamilton Chippewa trail at Haldibrook Road and runs 2.7 kilometres south along the old Georgia Pacific rail line to Haldimand Road 66 near Caledonia then it will take you off road along the Grand River to the hamlet of York.
Every visit is a new adventure into the animal kingdom.
Please Note:
This is the zoos direct line to the office, there is not always someone to answer the phone right away as we could be busy on the grounds tending to the animals and patrons. Please leave us a message and we will try to get back to you as soon as we can as the machine and messages are checked several times daily. Please email all major inquiries and questions. Thanks so much!

GOOD Based on 1132 reviews Posted on Google Pouruchishti KhorshediTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The zoo is worth visiting. Got to see the big cats at a very close distance with the protection grill in place. Had the opportunity to see their feeding session. The animals looked well kept. This place is worth visiting & highly recommended. It was a day well spent.Posted on Google Jafar TarefeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great Visit – Super Clear and Up-Close Views! If you're tired of zoos where the animals are way off in the distance and hard to spot, this place is a total game-changer. The layout is fantastic—the animals were surprisingly close, so we got amazing, clear views of them without being far away at all. You still have safe barriers, but you don't feel separated by a huge distance like in typical zoos. It was so nice to actually see them up close and personal without needing binoculars! Definitely a great experience and well worth a visit.Posted on Google Ashton AliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
