Wild Place Project

Discover a world of animal adventures – right on your doorstep! Wild Place Project is the perfect day out with over 50 acres of outdoor space to explore.

Spot animals from all over the globe, including endangered species. Say ‘hello’ to giraffes, zebras, gelada ‘baboons’, cheetahs, meerkats and ring-tailed lemurs, as well as our Bear Wood residents — bears, wolves, wolverines and lynxes.

Kids can run wild in the play areas, including the Fun Fort, Congo Bongo and Barefoot Trail, and discover fascinating animal facts at the free daily talks and feeds. And if you’re feeling really adventurous, there’s Leap of Faith — the thrilling outdoor climbing experience for adults and children (additional cost).

Rumbling tum? Food options range from light bites to delicious pizzas. Base Camp Pizzeria is open during weekends and school holidays, with pizzas prepared by onsite chefs and freshly baked in stone-based ovens (check the website for opening times).
