From winter-themed events and photo opportunities to Meet the Guardians talks and engaging conservation science, there’s excitement around every corner at your Toronto Zoo.
Breathtaking Winter Scenery
With more than 10 km of tree-lined walking trails in the heart of Rouge National Urban Park, your Toronto Zoo is one of the best places in the city to enjoy breathtaking winter scenery. Our newly completed, wooded boardwalks offer a beautiful way to experience snow-filled forests and crisp winter air.
Animals, Of Course!
Come visit some of your Toronto Zoo’s most popular animals who truly love snow days - it’s their favourite season too!
