DierenPark Amersfoort, Zoo in Amersfoort, Netherlands.
DierenPark Amersfoort is a zoo on landscaped grounds housing about 150 animal species in areas designed to reflect their natural habitats. The site remains open year-round and offers restaurants, play areas, and paths accessible to all visitors.
The zoo was founded in 1948 as a small animal sanctuary and grew into a complete zoological park over the following decades. This growth shaped what visitors see at the site today.
The zoo shares knowledge about animal care and conservation through daily presentations and interactive stations that visitors can explore. These programs help people understand how animals live and what they need to thrive.
The zoo is open year-round, with extended hours from March through October to allow longer visits. Wear comfortable shoes, as the grounds are large and require significant walking.
The zoo has specialized areas like a Night House where nocturnal animals live according to their natural schedule and stay active. Visitors can watch these animals during their natural nighttime routines.
