Ride the Historic Carousel*
Opens 9:30 a.m. Daily
*Cost: $3 (+ tax) a ride (cash or card) in addition to zoo admission
Enjoy rides on Woodland Park Zoo’s Historic Carousel with classic, hand-carved wooden carousel horses.
Riders that are not 42 inches or taller need an adult to hold them for safety. Adults can only hold one rider at a time. Adults can ride with two children under 42 inches if one of the children is carried in a child carrier that allows both the adult’s hands to be free, or they can all sit together in one of the chariots. Either way the adult holder rides for free.
*The Historic Carousel will close early at 3:00 p.m. on days with a ZooTunes concert.

10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. Daily
*Cost: In addition to zoo admission $10; members $8.
Zoomersion is Immotion’s wildlife immersive film experience, “The Great Migration,” an epic, wildlife journey and spectacle.
