Step Into a Luminous Winter Wonderland

See a spectacular world of reptiles and fish while wandering through our Meandering Mangrove. Take a moment to stop and smell the flowers as you journey Beneath the Blossoms of amazing botanical blooms. Then, step into the future at the Forest Trailhead—a luminous celebration of the incredible animals coming to Woodland Park Zoo’s new exhibit opening in 2026. Get an illuminated sneak peek at some of the forest ambassadors—like red pandas and tree kangaroos—that will soon call our zoo their home. And make sure to stop by the Interactive Zone—a space where imaginations of all ages can run wild!
