  • Sky Ride worth the money
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/15/09
    Our kids (14, 12, 9, 7) all wanted to go to the zoo while we were in Colorado Springs, but with so much to do, we were running short on time. So, I decided to just take them to ride the sky ride. We were able to see the giraffes, bears, bald headed eagle, tiger, goats and lots of chipmunks! At the top, they enjoyed climbing the rock wall. It ...

  • Just go back from CO
    By christine, 07/17/09
    I loved the zoo, being so up close with the animals was amazing. We had kids with us from 3 to 16 and they all enjoyed the experience. Lots of hills to walk so bring your comfy shoes.

  • Rainy day but lots of fun!
    By prh, 10/12/08
    We went in the morning on a gray day. Lots of animals were inside, but there were a lot outside too. We got up close and personal with a black bear, although there was a plexiglass window between us. :) The exihibits were unique and not the "same old zoo" type exhibits. There were cages instead of glass (like the Denver Zoo), but you ...

  • An awesome experience!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/28/08
    I can't express how excited I was to see the giraffes up close and personal. Even at Disney, the giraffes were close, but you went speeding by too fast to even get pictures. THe indoor exhibits were a little smelly, but any barn housing animals is smelly. Overall had a great time and would highly recommend it. Also, the park was very clean and well maintained, we thought it was new.

  • Zoo fun
    By Christy, 06/19/08
    The zoo was in the most beautiful spot! Right on the mountain! We got to see the animals (the kids always like a zoo) and then fantastic scenery as well. The staff was very friendly. The new ski lift ride is extra to ride, but the family loved the view! The giraffes are great! You can purchase crackers and feed the giraffes, and they are always ...

  • The Best Zoo in the USA
    By Harley, 03/28/08
    We have been to zoos all over the United States and this one is the cleanest and most interesting that we have found. They do have steep hills to walk but it is worth it. We went to the festival of lights and was truly impressed.

  • Best zoo ever!!!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/09/08
    The zoo was awesome. All of the animals looked great. The giraffs were great they ate right out of our hands. I have never been so close to so many different animals at any other zoo before. They were all right in front of us. I highly recommend visitting this zoo it is well worth the money!

  • Perfect for our little one.
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/17/07
    The giraffes, the monkey, the elephant-- all perfect for our two year old because they are close enough for her to see.
    Some may complain that it's not big enough but we think it is just the right size for a younger childs outing. You can see just about everything in 3 hours.

  • Depressing
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/19/07
    This zoo is incredibly depressing. Many animals' exhibits seem prison-like. Very disappointing. Parking was cramped. Exhibits seemed sad. I wouldn't go again. Doesn't seem like a modern zoo, but more like one from the 1950s with small smelly exhibits.
