Alpenzoo Innsbruck was founded in 1962 and sits up the hill from the city centre. For children the draw is hands-on: at the farmyard the animals can be petted and fed, and the zoo has its own playground. It is open every day of the year, public holidays included, and tickets bought online can be redeemed at any point within two weeks. The trade-off is the slope: the lower part of the zoo is easy going by wheelchair, but some paths in the upper part are steeper and reachable only with assistance.
