Sikypark, Animal rescue zoo in Crémines, Switzerland.
Sikypark is an animal rescue facility in Crémines that houses more than 800 animals representing around 120 different species. These animals come from circuses, other facilities, or rehabilitation programs and live in various habitats designed to meet their needs.
The facility was created to provide a safe home for animals that had difficult experiences in circuses or other settings. Over time it grew into a recognized center for animal rescue and rehabilitation across Switzerland.
The park teaches visitors about animal care and conservation through interactive presentations and hands-on sessions led by staff members. These programs help people of all ages understand why the animals are here and how they are being helped.
The center is accessible near train stations and easy to reach by public transport. Visitors should wear sturdy shoes and be prepared for uneven terrain, as the park spreads across hillsides and natural paths.
The center operates a small train called the Siky Express that takes visitors through exhibit areas where they can observe animals like meerkats and capuchin monkeys. This train ride offers a comfortable way to explore parts of the sprawling grounds without walking long distances on foot.
