Calgary Activities and Events - The Calgary Zoo

The Calgary zoo is a great activity to try in Calgary. I said try but I should have said visit, this is one of those activities you can go back to a few times a year. It is always nice to see the animals and stimulate your imagination to think about the rest of the world and all the various ecosystems. Truly awesome for all ages from little kids, big kids to adults and entire families.

The Calgary Zoo is located east of downtown Calgary along Memorial drive. The Calgary zoo has something for everybody and is open from 9 to 5pm daily.
