Bjørneparken, Zoo in Flå Municipality, Norway.
Bjørneparken is a zoo in Flå Municipality that displays Norwegian wildlife including bears, lynxes, wolves, moose, and foxes alongside reptiles and amphibians in naturalistic enclosures. The grounds spread across a forested area with different habitat zones designed for various animal species.
The zoo began as a bear-focused facility and developed over time into a place displaying many Norwegian animal species. This expansion reflects the region's commitment to wildlife education and conservation.
The park teaches visitors about Norwegian wildlife through daily feeding demonstrations and animal caretaker programs where you can learn about native species and their behaviors.
The zoo is located around two hours from Oslo and is accessible daily, with the best visiting time during warmer months when animals are most active. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended since the grounds are hilly and require considerable walking.
The park features a small roller coaster called Gyldenklo designed specifically for young children, blending amusement with animal encounters. This mix of ride and zoo experience is unusual and makes it memorable for families with small children.
