From our brand-new Bear Country to our Tiger Trail, explore our Nature Walk and animal habitats before heading to the Rides and play areas, whilst our Animal Displays will help to keep your little ones entertained all day long.
Once you’ve experienced the Safari Drive, why not take a walk through the Amur Tiger Trail, full of viewing spots where you can come nose-to-nose with Miron or Makari, test your speed in our ‘Dinner Dash’ sprint game - can you outrun an Amur Tiger?!
Meet our mischievous Meerkats, giant Giraffes and smiling Sea Lions all in one Foot Safari. Add to your adventure a peaceful woodland walk which leads you past our beautiful waterfall. And the best part is, it's all included in one admission price. There’s no need for a separate ticket!
Bear Country is the newest attraction in our Foot Safari, where you'll encounter our newest residents: two magnificent Andean Bears. As you journey down to Bear Country, just beyond the Birds of Prey centre, you have the perfect opportunity to catch a sneak peek of these elusive South American stars through our peepholes!
Once you reach the viewing window, positioned directly in front of their climbing platform, you'll have the perfect vantage point to observe them in action – whether they're enjoying a meal, lounging, or showcasing their incredible climbing ability.
From roar-some rides and amazing amusements, there’s lots to do at our Foot Safari. Set yourself up with some homemade food at our Oasis Restaurant, coffee shop, ice cream parlour and more and throw a picnic feast in our BBQ area. We cater for all needs, so give us a shout if you need any help!
Our engagement team is here during weekends and school holidays to deliver talks and touch tables in the afternoons around the Foot Safari. Learn more about the animals you love and let the children get involved with interactive learning sessions.
