Givskud Zoo

The 120-hectare wildlife facility features distinct zones where visitors can observe over 700 animals representing 70 different species in spacious natural enclosures.

The park began operations on August 12, 1969, under the name Løveparken, focusing exclusively on lions before expanding to include Asian elephants in 1970.

The facility maintains one of Denmark's largest gorilla exhibits, measuring 20,000 square meters, where visitors learn about primate conservation and behavior.

Visitors can explore the park through self-driven safari tours or guided bus excursions, with tickets starting from 130 DKK for access to all areas.

The park houses Europe's largest penguin facility, where guests observe Humboldt penguins both above and below water through specialized viewing areas.
