italianoPistoia Zoo and Accommodation Offer
The Pistoia Zoological Garden is a 7-hectare park set within a woodland on the hills surrounding Pistoia. It is home to 550 animals belonging to 100 different species. With a history of over 50 years, it is considered one of the most important zoological institutions in Italy for its commitment to biodiversity conservation and its ability to engage visitors in an emotional and enjoyable experience in close contact with Nature. A visit to the Park is an opportunity to step away from the frenzy of everyday life and enjoy a relaxing day with the people you love most.
Each season and each day of the week offer different viewpoints: the scents of spring, the cheerfulness of summer, or the colours of autumn provide the backdrop for precious days of quiet (during the week) or lively weekends, when the Park comes alive with numerous free activities for visitors of all ages. You can plan your walk at your own pace, stopping to listen to one of the many talks to learn the animals’ stories, or taking part with children in workshops where they can learn how to identify a bear’s footprint or fish for the right-sized catch. If you would like to enjoy a truly unique experience, book one of the “Close Encounters”: penguins, lemurs and giant tortoises are the stars of stories that will involve you up close.
If escape rooms are your passion, don’t miss “Penguin Code”, the brand- new, booking-only activity designed exclusively for adults. As the day goes on, you will notice the Pistoia Zoological Garden’s commitment to protecting Nature in every corner of the Park. The keepers care for animals entrusted to them by the international community through EAZA projects (the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria) aimed at safeguarding endangered species. Researchers can often be seen observing the animals at their exhibits, collecting behavioural data—every detail matters when it comes to understanding and protecting them in their natural habitats.
These natural habitats are at the heart of the many conservation projects supported by the Pistoia Zoological Garden, a commitment to securing a future for species at risk of extinction. A visit to the Pistoia Zoological Garden is therefore an opportunity to immerse yourself in the beauty of Nature and help take care of it. What are you waiting for to plan your day at the GZP? Information: The Pistoia Zoological Garden is open every day of the year. Booking is not required to enter. Free parking is available. Inside the Park you will find two playgrounds for children, picnic areas, a restaurant and a self-service bar.
