Frequently Asked Questions

A unique feature is the iconic Zoo Tower, which you can climb with this entry ticket to enjoy panoramic views of the city while supporting vital conservation projects.
This ticket includes general admission to the Copenhagen Zoo and access to climb the wooden Zoo Tower observation deck.
Climbing the tower and taking in the views typically takes about 20 to 30 minutes, while a full visit to the zoo grounds requires an additional three to four hours.
From the observation deck, you can see 360-degree panoramic views of Copenhagen, including the city skyline, surrounding forests, and the Øresund strait.
The zoo is located at Roskildevej 32 and is accessible via bus lines 6A and 250S or a 15-minute walk from Valby Station, with the tower situated centrally inside the park.
The tower features a spiral wooden staircase with over 200 steps and no elevator, making it physically demanding for young children, elderly visitors, or those with limited stamina.
The tower is not wheelchair accessible, as the only way to reach the observation deck is by climbing a narrow, multi-story wooden spiral staircase.
Early morning or late afternoon generally offers the clearest visibility and fewer crowds on the stairs, though the tower is open during all standard zoo operating hours.
Visitors should bring comfortable walking shoes for the extensive zoo grounds, a camera for the panoramic views, and weather-appropriate clothing as the observation deck is exposed to the wind.
The ticket is valid for a single entry on your selected date, and you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before your scheduled visit.
Large backpacks and strollers are not permitted on the narrow spiral staircase, so it is recommended to store bulky items in the lockers available near the zoo entrance.

Take your zoo visit to new heights with a trip to the Zoo Tower, standing 43.5 meters above ground. Climb 182 steps to reach the top platform, where you’ll enjoy sweeping views of Copenhagen. On a clear day, you can even see all the way to Sweden. Originally built in 1905, the tower has been renovated several times over the years. The very highest point — at the top of the flagpole — reaches 50 meters above ground level. But your visit to the Zoo Tower is more than just a great view — it also helps protect animals around the world. All proceeds go directly to vital conservation projects. These include Pilanesberg National Park in South Africa, where your support helps protect rhinos from poaching. Your visit also supports efforts in Zackenberg, Greenland, where scientists track wild musk ox populations, and in Refsvindinge on Funen, where native amphibians are being reintroduced into the wild. These are just a few of the many important projects you support when you climb the Zoo Tower.
A fixed entry fee grants access to the Zoo Tower climb and supports conservation work. Children under a certain age may receive discounted or free entry - check current pricing before your visit.
