Amazing place - definitely one of the rare zoo where all animals were extremely healthy with a shiny coat of fur! You can actually see tigers, leopards, bear, wolves up close. Glad I skipped Corbett cause this was better, easier with kids and far cheaper. Only reason for 4 stars is that the zoo is on an incline. There is a lot of uphill climbing and for senior citizens and even not so fit adults, it's quite tiring. But probably the best experience in Nainital - rest is all very commercial and similar to other hill stations.

Difficult to travel, lot of exercise, recommend pram for toddlers. Try to reach in either morning or evening slot. Hard to book government shuttle, try booking in advance. A variety of animals,nice to explore, nice weather at times with mist.

One of the best zoo you will visit in town. Situated at high altitude. Two ways to reach one by stairs and other way by which you can reach by your own car. I would say do not take stairs as they are very tough. The zoo experience is very good, with loads of wildlife and extinct species. There are arrow marking for the guided way to reach every animal one by one. There is 100 rs charge for adult and 50 for children. Must visit place with children specially.

One of the best Zoo I have ever visited. The high altitude Zoo has great view of the whole Nainital. Hugh variety of animals & birds. Just Amazing. Nit suitable for elderly, because it's over high altitude and walking is steep. Fun but can get tired. Suitable timing of visit before 12:00 or after 4:00 so that you can see animals... Must visit place Also have Museum aka Information Center.

Very well maintained national zoo specially in hilly area…almost all animals are there from tiger, white tiger, birds, bear, monkey etc..very clean zoo and animals care is very good.. You can take car ride to reach zoo from Mall Road…half a day one should spend to roam around this big national zoo and watching all the animal activities along with beautiful nature around from the height.. Must visit place in Nainital..

Highly underrated zoon in Nainital I guess.. Situated on the mall road the zoo is amazing place to see closely Tigers, Leopards, Red Panda, Bear & many other wild animals. Place is on hill that's the only trouble as walking on foot is a concern for senior citizens. Overall a must visit zoo when in Nainital.

It's a high altitude zoo. Strategically located. Very neat and clean. Refreshing breeze all the time. Animals collection is good, specially the Bengal tigers and Birds. Awesome place for a family getaway. Kids will love the place.

Comparatively a smaller zoo but with a good variety of high altitude animals. You won't find animals which habitat in warmer climate. The zoo is walkable for about 25 minutes from the Mall road, if you can walk uphill. Otherwise you may take a shuttle from the Mall road (chargeable), till last 150 meters, which you will anyway have to walk. Don't bring elderly or people who have trouble walking/climbing uphill. Children will definitely enjoy and you can spend some 2-3 good hours here. Has a variety of birds & deers. A couple of Royal Bengal Tiger, a few Pandas, black bear, leopard. Keep left and follow the arrows on the ground while walking. This way, you will ensure 100% completion or else you may skip out a couple of animals, if you walk haphazardly.

The zoo is situated on a hill (at height of 2100 mtr above sea level) and its a great experience walking up and down on steep slopes to see all the animals in their enclosures. There a multiple animals like tiger, bear, Tibetan wolf, leopard cat, sambar, deer etc. wide collection of birds too. The red panda is a unique animal present here. There is a cab service which takes you till the entrance of the zoo. Make sure to have water with you and enough stamina to hike through the zoo. The view from top is quite good with the Naini lake being clearly visible. There is also a temple situated on top of this zoo.

Love visiting a zoo and have been to many, from Lucknow, Delhi, Dehradun , Smithsonian National Zoological Park in Washington DC to name a few, but this high altitude zoo is by far the best. More than anything, it's the cool weather and healthy-happy looking animals that make this place worth visiting. Anyone who has seen the condition of zoo animals in Delhi's peak summer, would understand what I mean. Besides the animals, the views from this place are always magical. Hope you enjoy a trip to Nainital Zoo through these photos (from early 2000s - 2022). Do feel free to read further while I recount my early days of visiting this zoo. Still remember my school/college days when we would enter the zoo from the temple side, free of cost :) Back then, there were hardly any regulations, even the fencing was a single net. People would often get too close to the animals. Once held the tail of a Siberian tiger in my hands, while it was being fed through the small food door. Patted a leopard on the back who turned around, growled inches away from my face, as I inhaled it's horribly bad breath! I am glad all that silliness and stupidity is behind me and I am in one piece writing this! The security and safety today is top notch, and as an adult, I discourage any mischievous kids from being reckless, as I once was.

One during the stay at Nainital must visit zoo situated in the city on hills. Thursday is closed otherwise it is open since morning to evening 4.30pm. One of the finest Zoo situated in hills and well maintained. For senior citizens, it is difficult to reach but their entry is free. Bengal tiger and other animals are well placed. Entry Fee: 50 per person for Adults (between 13 Yrs - 60 Yrs) 20 per person for Children (between 5 Yrs - 12 Yrs) 25 for Still Camera 200 for Professional Video Camera Note: Free entry is provided for Senior Citizens and Disabled People Students get free entry on World Environment Day, Zoo Foundation Day, Ozone Day and during Wild Life Wee

I loved this zoo, it was clean and green. It wasn’t that big and the no. of animals were less too, though it was amazing. It is located on a very high altitude. Such an amazing place to enjoy quality time with your family. It will take one or two hour to explore completely and directly proportional to your strength and stamina. Better to take a taxi that costs only 40 rupees for both side. I would suggest not to go with aged or physically disabled people.

This place is huge and most of the animals are very well maintained. The main attraction here are their majestic Bengal tigers, cheetahs and leopards. The entry fee is ₹50 per person. There are regular shuttles available for people from the market area (opposite Evelyn Hotel) from where you also have to purchase the shuttle ticket which is for ₹59 per person. It's a pick-up and drop service at the same point. One can even walk it out as it is just a 1.3 kms walk from the starting point of the lake. It is uphill, so it takes about 15-25 minutes if you keep walking continuously until you reach the zoo and it is a straight road too! Beware of the monkeys once you enter the premises of the zoo. There are not many, but one should still be cautious. The zoo opens at 10 am and closes at 4:30 pm. Make sure you go in the morning and watch the animals before it gets crowded, leading them to go back inside their dens in their respective enclosures. Overall, visiting this zoo was a great experience.

Just awesome place to visit Nainital Beautiful view of nainital 🤩

This zoo is very near from Nainital lake but at high altitude. For that, cab services are provided for both side. Ticket you will get at the base only. After reaching at the height some stiff climb is there to reach to the zoo main gate. Many mountain based birds and animals you will find here. Restaurant is also there when you exit. Zoo is clean and well maintained. Must visit.

The zoo is a little different from other zoo I have been to , it is situated in hills and timings are 10 am to 4pm. For old people it's not good because they can't walk that much. For kids and young people and who love tracking it's good 🙂

Good place to visit but keep in mind it will take almost an hour

It's one of Three High Altitude zoos in India. Other 2 are in Darjeeling and Gangtok. It is built on mountain so there is lot of ascend and descend(maybe not suitable for toddlers). There are some rare animals here like Red Panda and Markhor. Overall it takes hour to visit. There is shuttle service between Mall road and Zoo which charges Rs 60/per person for to and fro journey. Ticket price for zoo is Rs100 and entry time is till 5 PM. Bags with eatables are not allowed inside which you have to deposit at gate. Closed on Thursday. Strictly follow yellow arrows painted on road or you may miss some cages. Connectivity between Mall road and zoo is not good. Be prepared to look for alternatives, you will find some people on bikes who will drop you there by charging Rs 50 per person for single side journey

Beautiful scenery. Animals are active and enjoying their stay. Tigers 🐅🐯 🐆 leopards are one of the main attractions🧲

Nainital Zoo is conveniently located, making it easily accessible for tourists. It offers a unique opportunity to observe and appreciate wildlife up close in a safe and well-maintained environment. Overall, Nainital Zoo is a must-visit attraction for animal lovers and nature enthusiasts. It combines the joy of encountering diverse wildlife with the importance of conservation, leaving visitors with a greater appreciation for the wonders of the natural world. but there is a red panda boards but didn't found it.

Very well maintained zoo with healthy animals & birds... The view of the city from the top is also very beautiful. But for aged people it is better to avoid to visit the zoo as it needs uphill climbing & it would be tiring & difficult for them.

Very Beautiful Places Better scenery than most view points Better visit this than other so called viewpoints

It is very difficult to reach this place. There are no markings as to where to park the car and no cabs can enter the way leading up to the zoo. The only way to reach this place is but shuttle (the wait is more than 30mins during peak times) or by two wheelers. Apart from this To reach the entry you have to climb really high and zoo is actually vertical so be prepared to hike a lot. The zoo is nicely maintained and I got to see tiger, leopard, bear.

Beautiful place.. This zoo location somthing different from others... If u too much seen or deeply enjoyed nainital other visiting places .. Then the view what u get from this zoo is almost same#bored .. But the actual think is, it is full of mind full Ness...satisfactory & tiredable 😅😊🍀

Awesome experience. Animals are lively. City view is awesome as the zoo is at very high altitude.

Nice place to visit

Very interested place and beautiful views

Awesome place. As the name says its really situated at high altitude. Gather all your stamina to visit this zoo but worth visiting. Neat and clean campus well maintained throughout. You cannot take your own vehicle here so either you have to walk (climb) 1.5 km (wont recommend at all) from the mall road, or you can take a shuttle (Rs 60) that would take you up there and bring you back to the mall road ( recommended). Here are some beautiful snaps taken during my visit.

Very nice guidance by sir related to every fishes . He also tells the vastu relation of fishes. According to me, you must visit this shop ☺️

Best in class

One of the best and maintained zoological park I have ever been visited! Located at height! You can drive there till basepoint by car or bike! Or else you can walk or take shared cab options! Approx 15 min walking from Mall road! Worth to visit!

Must visit place if you are planning for Nainital. View is awesome from this place. Whole nainital can be seen. It will be hard for patients with knee pain problem to roam around. Ticket price- ₹ 100/- per person for adults. Red panda, Royal bengal tiger, leopard, Deer, Himalayan Bear, Few Birds can be seen here. You can have snacks after completing zoo. The canteen is situated attached to zoo. You will exit from that canteen only. Prices are affordable. Attaching menu.

Best thing about this zoo is that you can watching animals very nearby. The Zoo authorities should be improving there zoo map and system. If you go there you'll be confused 😕

As the name suggests.. HIGH ALTITUDE ZOO.. so the only turn off is the pretty steep treck which may render the experience to couples with very small kids n elderly, quite physically challanging... But otherwise if one is heathy enough to go till the top, each n every animal cage is a pleasure to visit... All the animals come just so close to the fences that they can be Literally TOUCHED... ( Which is of course not allowed..) A decent canteen with good choice of food and a mini adventure park with some fun rides for kids available at near zoo entrance... No food stuff or drinks is available for purchase inside zoo. Overall highly recommended for a couple of hours visit. One CANNOT WALK UPTILL THE ZOO as ROAD IS EXTREMELY STEEP There is shuttle service from lake to the top at nominal charges which will take you Up n Down

Wonderful place to visit here. Really appropriate for it clean and animals 🦒 🦓 🦔 🐼 🐅 🦁 very clean. Keep it safe and clean. Watch vlog on youtube channel Tech Khoj

Zoo was very good and nice place to visit in Nainital, once you go over there can have very good view around from the top. You get the shuttle service from Mall road to go over there. We can have nice pics as well. Please wear mask and don't carry any eatable item. If you want you can eat there in zoo canteen.

Small zoo in Nainital! Pretty small cages for animal! Saw some red panda, leopard, Bengal tiger and Tibetan wolf

Very good place to visit in Nainital. Don't Miss this place not because Zoo animals but the view, The best of Nainital you can view from here... It's a total roller coaster ride for your legs. Must Visit

Its a high altitude zoo. Lots of animals and well maintained zoo. Since the zoo is on mountain expect alot of walking up and down the terrain. The best part is that they have preserved the nature and tree within zoo. Few of the enclosures feel like jungle. Must visit for your kids.

Great collection of animals and birds.. Being a high altitude zoo, the beauty is enhanced by the view and the scene of nainital lake is cherry on the top. A must visit to see bengal tiger 🐯

Outstanding views of zoo as well as nature around mountains and lake views also and high altitude fogs at that time or structure of the zoo or good place to outings there much more animals are also there atleast one time you have to visit when ever you went to nanital.

It's a nice place to visit. One must visit this place, it's kind of tracking and a zoo enjoyment... The zoo is very well maintained and cleaned. The best part what I liked about the zoo is that they have made the arrows which you should follow and it will help you to see all the animals and birds. The best attractions are the Tigers, leopard, red panda, parrots and love birds..

Nainital Zoo offers a captivating wildlife experience, boasting a diverse array of animals that captivate visitors. However, a potential drawback is the hilly terrain, requiring extensive walking, which might pose difficulties for elderly or asthmatic individuals. The steep roads could pose a challenge to their respiratory well-being. Despite this, the zoo's vibrant collection of animals promises an enjoyable outing for those able to navigate the terrain, making it a must-visit for wildlife enthusiasts.

It is a steep 2 km trek from the mall road to reach the starting of the zoo. An alternative is the taxi service for which you would have to wait for a long time in peak season i.e. May-June-July. It's a good zoo for people who love trekking. While trekking you get to see some amazing animals. The first one you'd see is a tiger! And then a white tiger! A trek of some more distance you'd see a black bear. The best thing in this zoo is the bird section. A lots of lively birds, some you'd only find in the Himalayas! Rest assured, there's not much to see, if you really love trekking you go ahead, you might come across the Himalayan Fox, nothing much after that.

Amazing place you have to reach there by 11 AM to watch the mighty Himalayas. The Maggi and tea hits different here when you sit and eat them because of the views. If you're visiting nainital you surely have to visit this place! You can rent a scooty which somewhat cost around 700 rupees and you can explore all the point's in Nainital in a day.

It was a great experience. I had never experienced this in my life. I would like to come here again and show this to my family also, it is amazing.

Nice place... Must go and visit.. A shuttle service takes you to the place and you have to walk (inclined slope) for rest 150 metres.

Less animals but well taken care by the zoo. Especially the tiger. Very healthy and magnificent

Must visit for people visiting Nainital. Zoo is well maintained . Costs Rs 100 per person. Tiger and Jaguar will make ur day.

Simply awesome, best combination of nature and animals. Any age group will simply love it. People with knee problem or old age might find it difficult to climb.

Loved the place. Loved the ambiance. Also the entry fee isn't₹ 50, its ₹100 🤣

Animals are kept in a healthy environmemt. Zoo located at high altitude. Shuttle service available from mall road. Tigers, leopards, deers, white peacock, wolf and a variety of birds.

Good zoo with Rare species

It's good

Top of the hill. You have to trek a lot.

You can have to-fro shuttle to zoo from mall road for Rs. 59. Shuttle will drop you around 200 M away from zoo. You can reach there by walking also just 1.2 KM climbing. Prefer shuttle if you are not comfortable in tracking. Inside zoo also you have to track a little. Great experience with Tigers and Leopard . Black Bear and red panda are bit lazy... 😀. Ticket charges are 100 for each person.

Bangal tiger is the main attraction.

Loved it.❤️❤️

Too high with kids but good overall

The high altitude zoo is very good for everyone. The best thing is that all animals are looks happy and healthy which usually miss in other zoo. Transportation facilities are available which helps alot for oldies and differently capable persons.

Must visit place in naintal ..if you want to see Bengal tiger and leapord from near distance..

NAINITAL zoo

Deliberately the photos I am sharing doesn't have any animals or birds of zoo...as I understand this is one of the highest altitude zoo and more than what we all go to zoo, this place is must visit for it's scenic beauty... The view from up there is something you would love It's closed on Thursday's apart from government holidays and to reach here you would get taxi from mall road which have fixed price, in one taxi they take 10 passengers

Nice place to see

Tasty food

Good to spend time, high altitude zoo. Must carry water bottle, too much terrain

Very good place

Too much enjoyed

Nice wildlife view

Amazing 😁

If you are having a plan for Nainital, then you must go to Zoo. Because here you will see all the animals. Like lion, Tiger, leopard, bear, red panda, wolf, deer and bird etc. If you are an average person, you can walk on the road from Mal Road, there is a 20-minute walk from the bottom. But if you do not like to walk more then so you can also take a cab or own car. Zoo is very big, You will enjoy a lot here and the point of view from the top will also be very good. Enjoy...

Amazing...amazing....and super amazing!! Must visit but only if you are ready to walk n that too on very steep slopes. U will be tired but trust me catching a glimpse of the red panda will leave u mesmerized..❤ on the plus...the view is amazing from the top!!

Overall experience is good. And the place is quiet peaceful. Zoo is on high altitude so people who cant walk long can take taxi which are easily available here.and here is also some restaurant here at zoo gate but they are very expensive .

This zoo has some of the rare animals. It's fun to visit there. But keep in mind, as the name says, this zoo is really at high Altitude. One has to be quite fit in order to enjoy there, else you'll get tired just on reaching the main entrance. Even the distance between 2 different animals is at height. Ticket price of the zoo is ₹100. The journey starts from Hotel India at Mall Road. You'll have to take a Shuttle in order to get there. The Shuttle charges are separate from zoo. It is ₹60 for both sides.

Wow! Such an amazing place. People must visit this Zoo. Kids will enjoy a lot!

We all had so much fun in zoo

A small zoo. Attractions include two royal bengal tigers, three panthers, a tiger, White Tibetan Wolves, some different kind of deers, bears, and a few rare birds. Be prepared to walk a lot as the terrain is high. Canteen in the vicinity is very basic but clean.

Awesome zoo More than 25-30 animal and bird varieties Takes about 1.5 hours overall to complete Requires lot of upward climb and walking Eat something before starting Carry water Photos and video allowed Closes at 4.30 or 5 PM Ticket 100 per adult

Amazing , must visit .. Don't miss on this when you are in Nainital.. Red panda 🐼 you get to see this.. Animals looks great there, weather and staff is keeping them great..

High and high great

Place is very nice, the view of the city from that much height is awesome. But the main problem is that to go at that much altitude you need great stamina. Not a place to go with small children or elderly as they lack energy.

Nice place👌👌

Good place

Very very good 👍 place to visit

Awesome place to visit with family and children

Condition of the animals was horrible they were underfed and lived super small cells.

Situated at the height of the mountain, this is a must visit place in the Nainital. How to visit: Take rickshaw from mall road or walk to the zoo shuttle pickup point. Zoo shuttle service charges 60 rupees person and shuttle will drop you near the zoom From shuttle drop point, walk for 10-15 minutes to reach the zoo.

Awesome but at very high , not suggest for older persons or who have any problem in their legs or back

Beautifully maintained place. Was over the moon watching tigers and leopards so up-close. Must visit

An ultimate experience..... Wonderful location, well managed, variety of animals and birds. All in all a must visit place in a hill station like nanitaal..

Most amazing experience of wildlife ever. I saw Tiger, panther, bear and many other animals first in my life here.

Uttarakhand Best Place Nainital Zo Good Tourist Attractive Place Bengal Tiger I See

This is one of the most attractive zoo situated in the top of Nanital. Here you have visit tiger, wolf, bear, leapord, etc.

It was pretty hard to treck to the zoo, so we saw only the Royal Bengal tiger, the Leopard and the mummified ver of the Siberian tiger! Its a place not to be missed the animals are well fed! We talked to one stff in the leopard area he said the leopard is fed 6-7 KG MEAT! EVERYDAY!. But I hope rhat those animals were in a rather free zone and not in cages! But the way the leopard kept purring when the staff came said a lot of how the animals could trust them! And hence well cared.

4 star for the experience, beauty, cleanliness. Very few but healthy animals.

I recommend this place for youngsters and kids. Elder people will find difficulty there as area is not plain. Apart from that zoo is beautiful. It has many rescued large jungle cats like Leopard, Gulmar, Tiger. I saw there three tiger and 5 leopard. There is bear, Red Panda and different type of deers. Reach there using shuttle that run from Mall road near India Hotel that cost was INR 50.00 per person pick and drop.

Great experience. You can see lots of animals.

It's very small zoo but according to hill station it's good I go lot of times there Its good

Beautiful nature and lot's of animal to see including tiger and leopard. Just amazing atmosphere. You must have to visit. I'll suggest you if you don't have any problem to walk, just go without any vehicle. Tracking to zoo is amazing experience. It's a must do thing in nainital

Very nice place, neat and clean, we can't go here by our own car, we have to pay 59/- per person and shuttle car is there for to and fro service, parking facilities not available, toilet and drinking facilities available.must visit place

The zoo is located very near to mall road. You can get shuttle for around ₹120 (both ways). It is nice place to have some fun with family. It was better than the other zoos ( especially Delhi) I have visited. I was not having much expectations but loved the place. You can spend good 2 hours and even more if kids are with you.

If you are an animal lover this place is must visit for you. Zoo is very large and have different species of animals. This zoo is open type i.e. they do not have cages, you can view the animals directly (offcourse they have mechanism for safety). White Tiger was my favourite during our visit.

This is high altitude zoo and I think the best zoo in India where animals are living in natural environment. You can see all the animals easily. The zoo is very neat and clean and animals are also healthy. First time I saw white peacock in this zoo and looks very good. The other peacock was dancing when I visited. The distance from mall road is around 2 KM and this is a must visit place if you come to Nainital.

The best part is the cleanliness and hygiene which you wont encounter in any of Indian Zoos. Undoubtedly the best zoo of India. The animals are visible and not hiding. The signages are good and interactive. The ticket price is low and free for kids. Red panda, tiger, leopards, and bear are the main attractions. No drinking water easily available inside. There is also a mandir, do visit it. A visit to zoo is a must in your nainital visit.

Nice place to visit....u will get to see Bengal tiger,cute red panda, white peacock and brown bear including other species.ticket price is 100rs/ person, last timing for ticket is 4 PM and visiting time is till 5PM.

It's a very beautiful and must visit place. The inmates (all the animals) are very healthy and taken good care of. Red panda is very cute, beauty of tiger and leopard was mesmerizing.

Nice zoo with many animals. And I guess this is the first zoo I had seen at such an altitude. Birds, Tiger, Wolf , Red Panda were main attractions. Arrows are marked that you need to follow inside the zoo and you are never lost. Some of the animals had wrong name board displayed outside which needs to be corrected.

Nainital Zoo, also known as Bharat Ratna Pt. Govind Ballabh Pant High Altitude Zoo, is a popular tourist attraction in Nainital, Uttarakhand, India. It is located at an altitude of 2,100 meters above sea level and is spread over an area of 4.6 hectares. The zoo was established in 1984 and is known for its collection of high altitude animals and birds. The main highlight of the zoo is its collection of Himalayan animals and birds. Visitors can see a wide variety of species, including the endangered snow leopard, Himalayan black bear, Tibetan wolf, bharal (blue sheep), and red panda. The zoo also has a large aviary that is home to several species of birds, including pheasants, parakeets, and birds of prey. One of the unique features of the Nainital Zoo is its natural habitat enclosures. The zoo has recreated the natural habitats of the animals, which allows them to live in environments that closely resemble their natural habitats. This gives visitors the opportunity to see the animals in a more natural setting and learn about their behavior and habitat requirements. So, overall this is nice place to visit with your kid. My daughter loved this place. #GBPantHighAltitudeZoo

Last time when I had visited the zoo that was a tourist season and I hadn't seen anything properly but this time as I visited during the non-tourist season only a few people were there and I had an amazing experience .... Highly recommended... One point i want to mention is that I feel some animals in the zoo are aged and van vibhag gives more attention towards them.

You can see tiger, leopard, red panda and some other birds and animals. It's tiring to reach up the top but the view from there to the town and nainital lake is amazing
