The Ljubljana ZOO is located in the southern part of the Tivoli Landscape Park, Rožnik and Šišenski hrib. You can reach us from the Ljubljana ring road, from Šiška or the center of Ljubljana.
The way to the ZOO FROM THE RING ROAD is marked with traffic signs and is, therefore, simple. At exit number 16 – Brdo, turn off the ring road, then follow the signs along the road that mark the way to the Ljubljana ZOO.
FROM THE RAILWAY STATION Go south towards Masarykova cesta and turn right onto Trg osvobodilne fronte. At the traffic lights at Dunajska cesta, go straight on Tivolska cesta (signs for Koper / Kranj / Aerodrom) and at the intersection with Celovška cesta, continue straight along Bleiweisova cesta. After 650 meters, turn left onto Šubičeva cesta, and after the next 50 meters, turn right onto Prešernova cesta. After 150 meters, turn right onto Erjavčeva cesta and drive past the underpass on Cesta 27. aprila straight along Večna pot. The Ljubljana ZOO is on the right side of the road.
FROM ŠIŠKA At the crossroads where there is the LPP building, turn from Celovška cesta to Šišenska cesta. Drive straight past three traffic lights to Večna pot. At the last traffic light, continue straight on along Večna pot for another 2 km. You will see the Ljubljana ZOO on the left.

A pleasant pedestrian and a cycle path lead to the ZOO. In front of the ZOO, there is also a station for self-service bicycle rental BicikeLj.
The Ljubljana ZOO is open every day, including Sundays and all holidays.
You do not need an EU DCC certificate to visit and walk around the zoo during the epidemic. Measures such as wearing masks indoors, hand disinfection and keeping your distance from each other still apply.
Well-mannered dogs can accompany their owners to our ZOO with a purchased ticket. They must remain leashed throughout the visit and adhere to our etiquette and safety regulations. However, dogs are not permitted in the Mini ZOO, within the Australian enclosure, or in children’s play areas.
No, the daily ticket is valid for one entry. You can leave the ZOO for a short period and return if you, for example, forget something in the car (point this out earlier at the cashier’s desk).
Unfortunately, tickets cannot be reused on a different day due to weather changes, and we do not offer refunds for them.
ZOOs do not buy animals but exchange them with each other. The costs of acquiring new animals are transport and arranging a new space for the animal.
Currently, we do not accept volunteers.
We have not had a Wildlife Shelter at the ZOO since 2003. If you come across an injured or sick animal, call the Wildlife Shelter in Muta in Koroška at 02 876 12 85, 041 518 939.
The Ljubljana ZOO is home to a variety of smaller animals under our care, but we do not offer external presentations with them. We welcome school groups to visit our zoo, where students can encounter various animal kingdom representatives and gain a comprehensive understanding of their world.
The lower part of the ZOO is more or less flat and accessible to visitors in wheelchairs. Only the upper part of the ZOO with indigenous animals is unsuitable for wheelchairs. At the entrance and next to the restaurant, we also have a toilet for visitors with special needs.
Visitors to the zoo have free access to the paved parking lot in front of the zoo and the gravel parking lot across the bike path opposite the zoo entrance. The gravel parking lot along the road, managed by the public company “Ljubljanska parkirišča in tržnice,” is paid on weekdays from 7:00 to 19:00 and free on weekends. The parking lot opposite the zoo by the meadow is privately owned and requires payment.
Visitors are permitted to pet animals only in the designated areas of the children’s ZOO, excluding their rest zones. Contact with other animals is restricted, however, you can learn about specific ZOO programs that offer supervised interaction with certain animals.
Feeding is strictly prohibited as our animals adhere to specialized diets with carefully measured quantities, quality, and types of food. Incorrect or excessive feeding can be harmful, even fatal. To educate visitors on animal diets, we offer feeding coupons for purchase.
We strongly advise adhering to these rules without exceptions, refraining from touching or feeding the animals. This not only prevents potential virus transmission but also ensures the animals consume their necessary diet without excess.
Not at the moment. There is also no Urbanomat in the immediate vicinity of the ZOO, so check the balance before visiting or take advantage of the option to pay for the bus ride with a mobile phone.
No, family tickets are not in our offer.
Yes, the LPP 18 or 18L line drive past the ZOO.
No. We do business with cash and cards at the entrance to the ZOO, in the Medvedji rob store and in the Safari restaurant.
Sure you can, just mind the cleanliness, collect the trash, and do not feed the animals with it.
There is also the restaurant Safari in the ZOO.
