Inside Kolmården zoo

You can easily spend a whole day walking around looking at animals and shows. They have 3 different shows; dolphin, seal and  raptor (birds).

The area is quite large, but walkable, and there are many places where you can rest or have a picnic. There's also a cable car that takes about 20 minutes that will take you around a large area that has African animals.










Visiting Kolmården in Sweden

Kolmården is a large zoo about 140 km drive from Stockholm. It takes less than 2h to drive there.

The zoo has lots of different animals from different places around the world. They also have a couple of shows. All shows are included in the entrance fee, 395 SEK for adults.

We rent a small car to get there.  The total cost for renting the car, paying for the miles and gas, became about 750 SEK, 80 EUR.

We started our trip around 8:20, but first had a typical Swedish breakfast.
