Where to go for a picnic?

There are picnic areas of various sizes on the grounds of the zoo, which can be used and rented for various events. You can find the locations of the picnic grounds on the zoo map. All pitches have six sets of wooden picnic tables, unfortunately we do not have shelters or tents.

Private individuals can have a picnic free of charge in green areas open to visitors (except for paid picnic areas) with their own picnic basket and linen, without disturbing other visitors and handling animals.
