Zoom Adventure World Gelsenkirchen

Gelsenkirchen

Start your journey in icy Alaska: polar bears, reindeer and moose greet you in an impressive setting. You can even try your luck panning for gold on an adventurous trail and discover hidden treasures. And of course, a trip on an ice floe through the snowy Alaskan landscape is a must!

Then it's off to hot Africa, where lions, rhinos and giraffes are waiting to be discovered by you. Following in the footsteps of Humphrey Bogart and Katherine Hepburn, you can glide through the river on the African Queen and observe baboons, flamingos and many other animals at close range.

The adventure continues in Asia: Here you will encounter majestic tigers and curious orangutans, who will whisk you away into the dense jungles of their homeland. For the little adventurers, there is another highlight at the end: in Dragonland, they can romp and play to their heart's content between ship hulls and dragon backs.

Want to experience more? No problem! The Zoom Erlebniswelt is one of the greatest and most popular zoos in the whole of Germany - a perfect destination for an exciting day out with the whole family.
