Hellabrunn Zoo

4.5 ·

Wander through Hellabrunn Zoo, Munich's spacious geo-zoo beside the Isar. Move between animal habitats grouped by continent, from great apes to capybaras, in roomy enclosures that make the walk as enjoyable as the animals.

📖

Full description

Hellabrunn Zoo is built as a geo-zoo, grouping animals by their region of origin in large, naturalistic enclosures rather than traditional cages. Visitors describe a spacious, clean and well-organised park with a wide variety of species, with chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans and capybaras mentioned as highlights.

It suits families but equally appeals to adults, and a full visit takes around three hours, with moderate walking between sections. Opening hours are generous on most days, making it a strong morning-to-afternoon activity.

Reviews

Brilliant zoo about 15 mins drive from the town centre. Lots of educational information and buildings to explore. A wide range of animals to see many of which were very active. Spent around 6 -7 hours there. Went on a Saturday but wasn't overcrowded and plenty of space to move around. Dogs are welcome though not…
