Innsbruck, the capital of Tyrol, is a beautiful city located to the west of Austria. In addition to many other treasures to discover, it hides one of the best zoos of Europe and, of course, the one located at the highest altitude in the entire continent (750 m.).
So if you like animals and you are thinking of visiting Austria and the region of TirolDon't forget to reserve some time to get closer to the Innsbruck Alpine Zoo. Will not disappoint you.
The best sample of native animals
In it you can visit more than 2,000 animals of 150 different species. There lives the largest and most complete collection of European indigenous animals. You will be fascinated to discover the thousand and one animals that live in this special zoo.
To get to alpine zoo from the city of Innsbruck, you can use the W bus, which leaves from Marktplatz square. Or take the Hungerburg funicular, which has a stop there.
The zoo occupies no less than 4 hectares of semi-natural terrain in which the animals are at ease. Located on a hill, to see and fully enjoy it, the 300,000 visitors it receives each year have to take a short tour of one and a half to two hours. In addition, during the summer months it is possible to hire Guided visits through the park, which will help you have a more complete and illustrated view of it.
A very special birthday party
One of the curious alternatives that has caught my attention is that, from the zoo itself, they organize birthday parties for children over 5 years old. The party includes a pedagogical visit to the zoo, snack, a gift for the party and a gift for the guests. Can you think of a better way to celebrate your birthday?
