African Lion Safari, Wildlife drive-through park in Cambridge region, Canada
African Lion Safari is a wildlife park spanning 740 acres near Cambridge where more than 1000 birds and animals roam freely across seven different reserves. The property extends over nine kilometers with varied landscape zones, each housing different animal populations.
The park was founded in 1969 through a partnership between its creator and England's Chipperfield family, who brought expertise in animal care. This collaboration shaped the park's structure and operations from its beginning.
The park allows visitors to see animals from different continents in large open spaces where they behave naturally. The enclosures mimic real African landscapes, making the journey through them feel more immersive.
You can drive your own vehicle or join a guided bus tour through the nine-kilometer route, with the best time from May through October. It helps to check beforehand which tour options are available, as these can vary by season.
The park operates North America's largest breeding program for Asian elephants, with dedicated spaces where these animals roam freely. This focus on elephant conservation sets this place apart from other wildlife facilities in the region.
