Zoo sights in Götaland

  1. Kolmården Zoo

    Kolmården Zoo is Scandinavia’s largest, with some 750 residents from all climates and continents. It’s divided into two areas: the main Djurparken with a dolphin show, and Safariparken, complete with a safari park bus tour for the carless. A combined ticket for the zoo and safari park costs Skr295/185. The cable car (Skr80/40) around the park gives a better view of the forest than of the animals.
