Givskud Zoo – Zootopia
Denmark’s largest safari-style zoo, where you can drive or take a bus through enclosures with lions, rhinos and giraffes.
Givskud Zoo was transformed into “Zootopia” by the architecture firm BIG starting in 2019. It is divided into African savannah, Asian and American zones, with generous animal spaces and visitor paths that are hidden from view. The most popular attraction is driving through the lion enclosure and the African savannah area. Visitors without a car can ride the park bus instead. The zoo has gorillas, red pandas, wolves and more, and it suits a half-day to full-day visit. Admission is about DKK 250 to 300. It is seasonal and closed in winter. It is about 20 km from Billund, roughly 25 minutes by car.
Opening hours
