    This zoo which is nearly 1km from entrance of jogimatti forest is an very pleasant place where you can spend quality time if you have kids. They will enjoy by seeing animals. They have bear, cheetah, snake, birds, deer and many more. An cage for tiger is getting prepared hoping to see the tiger soon.

    This is a small zoo situated in Chitradurga - Jogimatti road. Entry fee at main road towards zoo is 10rs per vehicle. After that before entering into zoo you will have to pay another 30rs per head as entry fees. You will get to see some peacocks, cocks, bear, birds, leopard, jackal, crocodile, turtle, deer, python etc... Area is not that well maintained and cleanliness is not that good. Whenever you visit pls carry your waste bottles and wrappers along with you. There is a small canteen where you can get chips, tea, bhajji, water bottles and soft drinks. There are some rides for under 14 kids. Kids will really enjoy it. Overall this place is okay for kids.

    Huge and peaceful place. Place is very neatly maintained and do visit if you have time and spend 1 to 2 hours. Might need to some walking as the place is huge and enclosures are quiet apart from one another.

    Adumalleshwara temple was built by Aadooru Mallappa. This is a cave temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. The temple premise also has a small zoo which has animals like panthers, deer, tigers, etc. The temple has an everlasting stream which runs through the Nandi's mouth, which is the main attraction here. This place is full good amusement place for kids both educative and entertaining

    Nice place to Relax It's a must visit place when you are in Chitradurga. A mini Zoo which kids can enjoy and lovely nature walk and family gathering. Very few animals, Birds and reptiles available. Huge parking area. Visit to this place need a max of one hour. And later can be clubbed with JogiMatti. Nominal entry fee. No food items available inside.

  • 5/5 Pranav R. 2 years ago on Google
    A good place to take kids, it is a small zoon but good enough to a town like Chitradurga. They have birds and animals. From June to October they also allow drive to Jogi Matta road which is very scenic.

  • 3/5 Srinivas P. 1 year ago on Google
    A mini zoo, not having too many animals or birds. I would recommend it only when you have time and kids in your party. In a dry land, they tried with some green lush which is highly appreciated. They are trying their best to attract visitors with more and more animals, like this 26th Feb the tiger is also coming to the zoo. Entrance fee is 30rs only, but you feel for a mini zoo like this it's OK. Do not expect too much animals here, some turkeys, tortoises, peafowl, emu, leopard, jackal, python, crocodile to count. There is a small cafeteria to get refreshment, the nearby children play area can be useful for young ones.

    1. Small zoo, very few animals. 2. Ticket cost = Rs. 40 for adult. They will not accept card or UPI. So, carry cash. 3. Good place for kids as you'll have playground for kids. 3.. Not well maintained as people does so much of littering here. 4. It'll not take more than an hour to cover this place. 5. You can find one shop inside. You can find snaks, soft drinks, water, etc. Prices are on higher side. So, carry your own water bottle. 6. You'll have places to sit inside zoo. So good for all aged people.

    A zoo in forest area. Small, kids will enjoy. Ample parking and excellent viewing arrangements. Drive to the zoo is a good experience as narrow, long, winding road gives you the right feel of going through jungle.

  • 4/5 king cobra e. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a mini zoo still in formative stage. Located 8 kms from Bus stand only those with own vehicle or capable of affording the exorbitant auto fares can visit. Forest greenery is great. 2 Bear, 2 Leopard, one tiger, Spotted deer, Sambhar/ Nilgai, peacock, Golden pheasant, Emu, Peacocks, Cockatoo, Tortoises, etc were some of the attraction . Brief details and Names of the animals and birds displayed are provided. Playing ground for kids below 12 years is there Canteen facility exists. Ticket is 40 Rupees. Separate restrooms for men and women is provided. I request the authorities to educate the Forest guards Manning the wild animals not to irritate and awaken them by shouting in their enthusiasm to make it seen by the visitors. During my visit today the sleeping Tiger was awakened by the guard by shouting and making noise on the fence. Timings 9.30 AM to 5.30 PM

  • 5/5 Tejasvi P K. 9 months ago on Google
    Mini zoo situated near Chitradurga. Can also visit jogi matti view point which is nearby. Do not tease and feed animals. Travel responsibly and do not litter.

  • 2/5 Snigdha J. 5 months ago on Google
    Did not find it worth the visit and ticket price. Ticket for adults is 50 rs and kids is 30 rs. They charge 50 rs for 4 wheeler parking and 20 rs for 2 wheeler. I didn't find it fair. They have just a bear, a leopard, a tiger, 2 crocodiles, couple of spotted deers, black buck, few exotic peacocks. That's it. The zoo is not properly maintained, no proper guidance with direction boards, we got confused where to go. It's a waste to visit.

  • 4/5 Harinath A. 5 months ago on Google
    This is a forest site with zoo attached. The tickets can be bought only with money. No UPI or cards accepted. The entry fee is 40 for adults and 20 for child. The zoo is being developed with new encloses. This zoo currently has bit of birds, crocodiles, bear, cheeta, tiger and jackal. Place is currently worth for a one-time visit. With new developments inside ongoing, this might become the good zoo. The zoo also has a big playground with children play area as well.

  • 4/5 Pavan A. 3 months ago on Google New
    Very very small zoo. It will take 30 mins to 45 mins.. No food available, boards says no parking fee.. but they collect parking fee

    It is a Zoological Garden. Calm and cool. Not so many animals only bear, dear, Blackbuck, Bluebull, Leopard and few birds. Only Bear was visible clearly leopard was placed in a cage which is very far. Blackbuck and Dear also not in a good numbers. But best part of the park is it is filled with Greenery. Huge Neelagiri trees has been grown inside that's giving extraordinary charming look for the park. Inside the Zoo there is a temple dedicated to Aadumalleshwara swamy.
