A pretty small zoo but it does have some nice animals like a blue tree monitor. The bigger animals all have really small enclosures, which is sad. They have Malaysian tigers which are quite rare. They do have some family oriented events so if you do not have kids do not come on Easter or such cause you will have to listen to horrible music throughout the whole park. But if you do have kids that is nice, I guess. The zoo itself seems to be doing alot for animal rights even though the tigers, lions and chimpanzees all have very little space. Animals like monitors, snakes, all sorts of smaller ones have great enclosures. It is on a hill, not steep at all but just so you are aware.

Cool.👍

It is one of the most well-designed, clean, healthy, well-cared Zoo. I saw many workers around who were carefully taking care of animals. At the end, it is a Zoo and animals are under captive, but it was relieving to see that animals are under good care.

very good but not well maintant

Nice, little zoo. Pretty compact and not a lot of distance to walk between the different animals Interesting history as well

The Zoo layout is well planned, so it's easy to get around. There were many animals to see even with the Covid-19 restrictions. All of the inside visiting areas were closed, but felt good to support the zoo and see red pandas as well as their very active meerkats. When the pandemic is over I'll definitely come for another visit. I recommend this zoo for families with young children.

Nice zoo in the city. People and children can visit. Accessible with public transport. Eating and drinking stalls in the zoo. Zoo is equipped with Benches all over its path.

(Translated by Google) Not that big a zoo, but lovingly maintained and laid out. You can also find most of the “big zoo attractions”, but it is often the not so famous residents that attract and captivate you, such as the zoo. B. the meerkats. Located on a slope, you can easily watch the animals in their everyday life at the zoo. Parking garage for car-driving visitors: very practical right next to the zoo. (Original) Ein nicht so großer Zoo, aber liebevoll unterhalten und angelegt. Zwar findet man auch die meisten der „ großen Zooattraktionen“ , aber oft sind es ja die nicht so berühmten Bewohner, die einen anziehen und fesseln, wie z. B. die Erdmännchen. An einem Hang gelegen, kann man leicht aufsteigend den Tieren in ihrem Zoo-Alltag zuschauen . Parkhaus für autofahrende Besucher: sehr praktisch direkt neben dem Zoo.

There were few animals except for a few species of birds which were numerous. All the animals were sleepy and silent. Unfortunately, many shelves were empty. But the variety of animals was great and there were beautiful spaces. There were places for rest, eating and children's playground. The whole zoo could be seen in 2 hours.

I’m gonna start with the positives. Buying the tickets in advance (online) is cheaper compared to buying the tickets in the zoo itself. However you can’t just scan the tickets on a machine and go in but you need to go to a counter. I bought the cheaper tickets since I’m a student and the lady only said “Ermäßigung” (card that students get in Germany), I absolutely understand that she needs to check it since it was cheaper but she was quite rude. Also the price just doesn’t justify the experience there. There is a very good panorama of the city. You can borrow a small “vehicle” for the kids since they are gonna be tired since it is pretty steep at some places. The zoo itself is very pretty and it has a lot of animals you can look at. You can read about the animals being held captive there. Also you can look at the animals as they’re being fed, which is as I can imagine a good entertainment for the kids. However sometimes the animals aren’t to be seen numerous times throughout the day.

Lovely zoo with lots to see and do. Easily reached via public transport or by car (paid car park underneath the zoo!). Ramps everywhere, making it an east-to-navigate destination for parents with buggies or visitors who require a wheelchair. Only downside was that none of the food stalls were open despite a note on their website saying that they'd open at 10am (it was a 32°C day and there were no options to purchase water or food. We left at just before 12pm and none of the stalls we passed were open).

Great little zoo with nice walks and a viewing tower at the top. The restaurant was closed for building work when we went.

Great Zoo! Plenty of interesting animals and nice exhibits. It's quite interesting for both kids and adults alike.

(Translated by Google) I think the zoo is very nicely laid out and have visited it many times. I don't like the announcements over the loudspeakers. This gives an oppressive feeling of being manipulated and patronized, like something out of a science fiction film. (Original) Ich finde den Zoo sehr schön angelegt, habe ihn schon oft besucht. Nicht schön finde ich die Durchsagen über die Lautsprecher. Das vermittelt ein beklemmendes Gefühl von gegängelt und bevormundet zu werden,wie aus einem Science Fiction Film .

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately, due to the pantemy, only the outdoor enclosures were open (Original) Leider waren wegen der Pantemie nur die außen-Gehege geöffnet

(Translated by Google) Nice as always... (Original) Wie immer schön...

(Translated by Google) Beautiful! (Original) Wunderschön!

Surprisingly nice zoo with fair prices. Currently the car park is closed and there is no alternative parking. Really bizarre decision to make the car park inaccessible during summer holidays.

A nice and quiet park for famillies and singles as well. Much to see and the view from the tower is amazing.

(Translated by Google) During these times it is particularly nice to be able to switch off completely. A visit to the beautiful and very well-kept zoo was the best address. Always my pleasure. (Original) In diesen Zeiten ist es besonders schön mal vollkommen abschalten zu können. Dazu war der Besuch in dem wunderschönen und sehr gepflegtem Zoo die beste Adresse. Immer wieder gerne.

The kids loved it! Lots of animals, lots of places to rest. Wonderful zoo staff!

Great zoo for families with children. We had a great day out.

Beautiful and cosy at the same time. Loved that you have the 🦥

I enjoyed a quality time with my family at the Zoo.

very nice small zoo. its not Leipzig but its also half price .very interesting that the zoo is in higher and lower levels of ground .

Our small son is always excited to go here, and so are we! He especially loves the penguins, elephants, and vicuñas, and also really enjoys seeing the tigers, though I always feel bad for the big cats in their small enclosures. We also always make a stop at the big climbing structure next to the small monkey house — you really can spend the whole day at this zoo, or with an annual pass, just pop in after KiTa and still have a lovely time. We love the Zoo’s many holiday celebrations and were very excited about the return of the Magische Lichterwelt — the dinosaurs were so cool! I also want to give a shout out to the social media team (especially Julia!) which maintains a fantastic Instagram account. My son and I love watching videos of the animals we have visited, or visiting animals we have found out about through the account. We have learned so much! A few wishes for the zoo, just in case anyone actually reads this: — is the Hintereingang ever returning? Or even the Ausgang? That would be awesome. — we really wish admission didn’t end at 16:00 in the cooler months! It’s not the dark in March or April, but with this schedule, we can’t make it after KiTa, which basically means we can only go to the zoo on weekends for much of the year. — it would be great to see a smoking ban at the zoo, or at least designated smoking areas.

Unique mountain type structure of this Zoo. At the top of the Mountain you can enjoy a complete view of Halle. It was amazing to see how the Staff feed the animals specially Penguins and Fur Seal. 😍

It’s not as big as Leipzig’s Zoo, but you pay less than half the price and still have to possibility to see pretty much all kind of animals.

Zoo was mediocre. The playgrounds that I saw were more oriented for children over three or four years of age. When traveling alone with a toddler and a stroller, it can be a bit much because you go uphill the entire time.

Amazing peaceful gardens inside the zoo, with benches to sit. Particularly quiet on the back side of the „Berg“. Lilacs wonderful in spring.

Good place to go in summer but penguin 🐧 will not be active during summer 😅

(Translated by Google) Unique - laid out on a mountain, penguins closer than ever (Original) Einzigartig - auf einem Berg angelegt, Pinguine so nah wie nie

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately still to. But for the reopening we are back with you. (Original) Leider immer noch zu. Aber zur Wiedereröffnung sind wir wieder bei euch.

(Translated by Google) Recomiendo ir en verano. La verdad que animales hay poco, para el que espere ver una amplia variedad de animales, no se los recomiendo. I recommend going in the summer. The truth is that there are few animals. For those expecting to see a wide variety of animals, I do not recommend it. (Original) Recomiendo ir en verano. La verdad que animales hay poco, para el que espere ver una amplia variedad de animales, no se los recomiendo. Ich empfehle, im Sommer zu gehen. Die Wahrheit ist, dass es nur wenige Tiere gibt. Für diejenigen, die erwarten, eine große Vielfalt an Tieren zu sehen, empfehle ich es nicht.

(Translated by Google) Hopefully you will open again soon (Original) Hoffentlich öffnet Ihr bald wieder

(Translated by Google) It was nice. (Original) Es war schön.

(Translated by Google) Really a very nice zoo, something different because of the mountain area. Took 3h for the whole round. But never had such a bad currywurst eaten, it was fried in the fritouse before my eyes. (Original) Wirklich ein sehr schöner Zoo, durch die Berggegend Mal etwas anderes. Haben 3h für den ganzen Durchgang gebraucht. Aber noch nie so eine schlechte Currywurst gegessen, diese wurde vor meinen Augen in der fritouse gebraten.

Hund darf mit! Super <3

Immer wieder ein sehr schöner Zoo. Auch unter corona Bedingungen einen Besuch Wert. Der neue Gastronomie Bereich ist toll geworden und Zoo typisch im Angebot.

Es war sehr schön, man konnte trotz Einschränkungen viele Tiere sehen. Die Mitarbeiter haben sich alle Mühe gegeben.Es war sehr entspannt.

(Translated by Google) I can only recommend it. A very beautiful and also quite large zoo with lots of animals. You can take a leisurely stroll and buy delicious food. The animals also seem satisfied, as far as one can tell. (Original) Nur zu empfehlen. Ein sehr schöner und auch recht großer Zoo mit vielen Tieren. Man kann sehr gemütlich durch spazieren und auch leckeres Essen kaufen. Die Tiere wirken auch, soweit man das beurteilen kann, zufrieden.

A really nice zoo. At all corners and ends of very clean. so many great animals and the enclosures built that you can see all the animals. The zoo has a special appeal with its mountainous terrain and offers many places also a great view of the city. Price are fair.

Its a nice place to visit. From the top of the Zoo, the view of the city is so beautiful.

The card reader at the café "didn't like" foreign cards, so we couldn't buy any water or food on a hot day. Apart from that it was great: the zoo is quite compact, so the children got to see all the animals they know and like, but didn't get overly tired.

Nice little Park which invites top come back

This zoo is not so big but it is on a hill, which makes it quite interesting with many nice views. It is well kept and has, for example, such animals as tiger, lion, leopard, elephant, crocodile. The lantern exhibition is great with hundreds of animal/flower/bird etc. decorations shining at night accompanied by pleasant music.

Love it <3

The Zoo is a truly amazing place during the winter evenings. The latern event is wonderful. I enjoyed how lovely every thing looks. Of course going there on a Saturday evening is a bit of a risk as it is very crowded. But our it is a very unique experience and worth a trip. I hope to see the zoo in summer during the daytime to watch the animals. Going there during the night gave me a very good impression and I had a wonderful time.

Top location. Nice Zoo.

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately it was very empty today but the animals were Fiti (Original) Leider war es heute sehr leer aber die Tiere waren Fiti

(Translated by Google) One of the most beautiful zoos in Germany. It's not that huge in terms of the area and the animal species, but definitely worth a visit. From the observation tower on the mountain you have a fantastic view of Halle and the surrounding area. A few animals like giraffes or something like that would be desirable. (Original) Eines der schönsten Zoos von Deutschland. Ist zwar nicht so riesig von der Fläche und den Tierarten, aber definitiv ein Besuch wert.Vom Aussichtsturm auf dem Berg hat man eine fantastische Aussicht auf Halle und Umgebung.

(Translated by Google) Despite corona, still nice and happy to visit again. Friendly staff (Original) Trotz corona , trotzdem schön und gern wieder zu Besuchen . Freundliches Personal

(Translated by Google) Very great zoo. Definitely visit. Halle / Saale is always worth a visit anyway! (Original) Sehr toller Zoo. Unbedingt besuchen. Halle / Saale ist sowieso immer einen Besuch wert!

(Translated by Google) Even when the animal houses are closed, the mountain zoo is still an absolutely worthwhile visit. Well-kept grounds and fantastic views. (Original) Auch bei geschlossenen Tierhäusern ist der Bergzoo noch ein absolut lohnenedes Besuchsziel. Gepflegte Anlagen und fantastische Ausblicke.

(Translated by Google) Everything nice !!! (Original) Alles schön !!!

Small but nice zoo. Animals look a bit sad but they seem to in many zoos. We have a season pass which is a great deal if you have kids and plan to come more than 3 or so times a year. Standard food options a bit higher than standard rates. No credit cards accepted.

(Translated by Google) Very winding and confusing, but nice zoo and interesting design. Prices are okay too. (Original) Sehr verwinkelt und unübersichtlich, aber schöner Zoo und interessante Gestaltung. Preise sind auch in Ordnung.

(Translated by Google) Nice zoo with mountainous hike. Perfect for families. A nice view over Halle makes the lunch break perfect (Original) Schöner Zoo mit bergiger wanderung. Perfekt für Familien. Ein schöner Blick über Halle macht die Mittagspause perekt

(Translated by Google) My favorite zoo. Due to the mountain location, some of the animal houses are multi-storey and you have the best view over Halle. It's probably only better from the Marktkirche. I always enjoy going there. (Original) Mein Lieblingszoo . Durch die Berglage sind auch die Tierhäuser teils mehrgeschossig und man hat den besten Blick über Halle. Besser ist er wohl nur von der Marktkirche. Ich gehe immer wieder gerne hin.
