Measured by visitor numbers, the zoos in Zurich and Basel are the most popular. These two largest zoos in Switzerland currently record around 1.2 million visitors per year. Officially, there are five scientifically recognized zoos in this country: Basel Zoo, Zurich Zoo, D\u00e4hlh\u00f6lzli Animal Park in Bern, Goldau Nature and Animal Park, and Zurich Langenberg Wilderness Park. They meet international standards in the areas of species protection, research, and education.    <\/p>\n\n<p>However, the picture is broader: Around 120 other publicly accessible animal enclosures \u2013 including small zoos, aviaries, wildlife parks, or stork stations \u2013 complement the offering. These places are often regionally rooted and offer visitors insights into the animal world, albeit mostly without the scientific claim of the large institutions. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Zurich Zoo most Expensive for Adults<\/h2>\n\n<p>The comparison of admission prices in zoos and animal parks on Nexano shows that adults have to dig deepest into their pockets for a visit to Zurich Zoo. Adults pay CHF 31.00 for a day ticket. This price applies to an online ticket. At the ticket office, CHF 32.00 is due. Children (6-12 years) pay CHF 17.00 for Zurich Zoo admission when booking online. When purchased on-site, CHF 18.00 is due.<br\/>According to our comparison, the most expensive admission prices for children are at Aquatis &#8211; Aquarium-Vivarium in Lausanne. At Europe&#8217;s largest freshwater Aquarium-Vivarium, children (5-15 years) pay CHF 19.00 for a pre-purchased online ticket. If the ticket is purchased on-site, CHF 22.00 is due for children. Aquatis admission for adults amounts to CHF 29.00 for an online ticket and CHF 32.00 when purchased at the ticket office on-site.        <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nexano.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/asian-elephant-2108974_1280-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"asian-elephant-2108974_1280\" class=\"wp-image-8377\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nexano.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/asian-elephant-2108974_1280-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.nexano.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/asian-elephant-2108974_1280-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nexano.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/asian-elephant-2108974_1280-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.nexano.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/asian-elephant-2108974_1280.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Zurich Zoo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">There are also Free Animal Parks<\/h2>\n\n<p>In Switzerland, there are also various animal parks that can be visited free of charge.
