Kuopio Animal Park

Spend a memorable summer day getting to know the cute animals together with family and friends. Visit also the playing area, café, as well as the exhibition of vintage tractors.

There are two different addresses where you can visit Kuopio’s animal parks. Kuopio Animal Park Vehmasmäki is located in the beautiful countryside of Vehmasmäki village, 20 km away from Kuopio, and the renovated Kuopio Animal Park Rauhalahti is located in the Rauhalahti tourist center, just 5 kilometers away from the center of Kuopio. Both animal parks are delightful destinations for the whole family! Animal Park Vehmasmäki is open on December 2023 from 13th to 17th of December, from Wednesday to Saturday 4 pm-7 pm and on Sunday 2 pm-6 pm.

With the Summer Pass, you can visit the animal parks unlimitedly throughout the summer season and receive discounts on park programs. Every fifth visit entitles the Summer Pass holder to a free coffee or ice cream.
