Hamilton Zoo is known as 'the zoo with personality' – pay a visit and you'll see why!

Boasting the largest walk-through aviary in New Zealand and home to over 600 native and exotic animals, the zoo is set amongst 25 hectares lush tranquil surroundings and is the ideal destination for a relaxing recreational visit. That's a lot to get around, but not to worry – you can take all day and while you’re there, check out the delicious treats on offer at Flavours Café.

As well as being a tourism and recreational park, Hamilton Zoo is a valuable contributor to breeding programmes for endangered species of animals. Model habitats, generous enclosures and natural environments feature in the zoo. Along with up-close and personal animal encounters and passionate staff to share their knowledge, there’s always something new to discover and learn for children and adults alike.

Come share the fun and enjoy the adventure.
