Animals in action

Shortly after spring ended, and the arrival of summer, the fine summer weather finally arrived. This year and in general during this time of year, Debrecen’s Zoo offers more experiences than usual. Visitors are welcomed with extended opening hours, an expanded “Animals in Action program” and a variety of summer events. In addition to the programs, and the favorable microclimate and shady foliage of the Great Forest, the zoo also provides a pleasant relaxating environment, summer refreshment with water vapor gates and icy delicacies to cool down.
