They really take care of the animals. Giraffes and elephants in warmed pens. You can feed elephants carrots and apples. Most of the animals will eat the carrots, which is sold at the ticket counter. Restaurant are modern, clean, and have decent food and coffee. Nothing to really complain or protest against, a well ran establishment with plans to expand in the very near future.
We visited the Opel Zoo on a Saturday. Unlike traditional zoos, the Opel Zoo provides spacious habitats for animals, allowing them to roam more freely and exhibit their natural behaviors. As you wander through the zoo, you’ll have the privilege of observing animals in environments that closely mimic their native habitats.
The Opel zoo offers the opportunity to observe elephants, giraffes, reindeer, various species of birds, and playful monkeys in a nice scenery.
My highlight was the enclosures where visitors can feed the sheep and goats. I find the prices for the carrots and the animal feed to be too expensive. However, I hope at least it benefits the zoo. Definitely worth a visit!

Family friendly & very replayable. Good parking situation. Read about the animals on the Zoo's website, BUT if you are visiting with kids: Bring a handful of 1EUR coins for your break, there is a large playground with - among other things - bumper cars and a kids carousel. Also on the list: pony and camel riding and of course: the petting zoo. Added bonus: You can bypass the gift shop on your way out. Enjoy.
Was great, parking good, entrance good, you buy your animal food there, food from home for feeding animals not allowed, main route is well done, cute animals, big animals really cool. Also lot of places to sit and relax, quite some up and down!
It is the best zoo I’ve ever been! First of all, it’s huge 😍😍😍 You will need at least half a day
to discover the whole area. Secondly, you can buy carrots (2,50€ a pack) at the entrance and feed animals on your own. They also have an area where you can come in yourself and walk around next to goats, donkeys and sheep 🐑 that are very very cute and hungry (😂). We also saw elephants, giraffes, deers, penguins, rabbits, pigs and different birds. I recommend coming during the week when there are not many people and when the weather is good. There is also a big playground for kids.

We have been to this zoo several times and it never disappoints. This is a great day trip, there is plenty to see. Parking can be hit or miss which is to be expected of a nice zoo like this. There has always been parking though, just a bit crowded depending on the days. Carrots can be purchased at the cashier for two euro and there is other feed throughout the park. Kids love to pet the animals and this place is great for that! If you go online, you can book an experience with the lemurs for free!! Totally recommend!! My kids and myself had a blast being on the other side of the cage and interacting with them. The park is always clean and the animals look happy. Their enclosures are clean and they have plenty of space to roam around. Highly recommend.
