I had several hours to kill on my last day in Leipzig and thought the Zoo might be a good option…read more I'm glad I visited the Leipzig zoo. For the visitor, it is almost a must-see option in Leipzig. First of all, the location is excellent, within easy walking distance of the main train station and the central city. The price was very good -- I paid 18.50 Euros for my day pass. The zoo itself is very well laid out with a guided path that takes you through the entire park. The interior Gondwanaland section is outstanding. This is an enclosed section of the zoo with temperature and humidity maintained as in the tropics to support animals from that habitat.

Diese einmalige Lage ist es auch, die ihn zu einem der landschaftlich schönsten und zum einzigen Bergzoo Deutschlands macht. Auf dem 9 Hektar großen Gelände leben heute etwa 1700 Tiere in über 250 Arten aus 5 Kontinenten. Mit vielen erst in jüngster Zeit modernisierten und neuerbauten Anlagen z. B. für Seebären, Elefanten, Löwen, und Krokodile wurden für die Zoobesucher neue, eindrucksvolle Erlebnisbereiche geschaffen. Auf Grund seiner landschaftlichen Konzeption ist der zoologische Garten der ideale Ort für Familien und für ältere Besucher. Trotz der Lage am Berg, machen ihn die serpentinenartig angelegten Wege auch zu einem Zoo der kurzen, barrierefreien und dadurch leicht begehbaren Wege.
