What you need to know
- Easy with a stroller, since every path and enclosure is step-free, and pull wagons rent for €3 plus a €20 deposit
- Daily keeper feedings on every open day, with times on the zoo's website
- Parking is tight on Schnampelweg, so use the TU Lichtwiese garage at Eugen-Kogon-Straße 31 (€2.50 a day, paid in cash on entry), closed to the public on SV Darmstadt 98 home match days
About
Zoo Vivarium is the city of Darmstadt's own zoo, spread over 5 hectares beside the botanical garden. Monkeys, colorful birds, reptiles and tropical fish live in planted enclosures, terrariums and aquariums.
Kids can walk among the kangaroos in their open enclosure and pet the African pygmy goats in the petting zoo. Keepers explain the animals at commented feedings every open day, and every path works for strollers and wheelchairs.
