Denmark's Best Awards 2025 🏆

Aalborg zoo

Aalborg Zoo is not just one of the largest zoos in the Nordics. The park is too one of Denmark's most popular attractions and is visited annually by 450,000 people.

..and an even better reason to visit the park all year round:
Aalborg Zoo is dedicated to nature conservation and has breeding programs for endangered animal species. With over 100 exotic animal species the park offers an educational experience for everyone!

In addition, in 2024 you can experience the new exhibition "World Space", which focuses on the UN's Global Goals, and the new Madagascar area with lemurs in natural surroundings.
