Vildriket is open every day

Vildriket is open every day of the year, offering delightful experiences in every season. In late summer, you can enjoy the warm days and watch the animals as they prepare for the coming winter. Autumn showcases a spectacular burst of colors in the forest, and you can admire the magnificent antlers adorning the majestic cloven-hoofed animals. As the leaves fall and the air becomes crisp, the park transforms into a peaceful haven where you can closely observe the animals’ preparations for winter. In winter, the landscape is covered in sparkling snow, highlighting the animals’ beautiful winter fur.

Good to know

  • In Vildriket, you can navigate the park along a three-kilometer-long wooden walkway without stairs. Since the zoo is built on a hill, there are some steep slopes in certain areas. There are plenty of rest areas throughout the park where you can take a break if needed.

  • Explore Vildriket the right way. Please stay on the wooden walkway. Protect and respect our beautiful nature by not venturing into the forest.

  • Dogs and other pets are not allowed in the park due to the risk of disease transmission and safety concerns. If you want to bring your dog, there is a public dog park near the upper parking area. Information on how to rent a spot can be found at the dog park. Please note that supervision of the dog park is not conducted by Vildriket.

  • Accessibility for individuals with mobility impairments may be limited in certain areas. It can be helpful to have someone assist you. There is an accessible restroom in the entrance building. The nearest handicapped parking is at Bergshotellet, but please contact us, and we can likely arrange a closer spot. Feel free to reach out to us before your visit if you would like more information..

  • Feeding the animals is not allowed. Our animals have a carefully controlled diet and can become seriously ill if they are given the wrong food.

  • Sleds are available for rent near the entrance, making it easy to carry your belongings around the park. Of course, you can bring strollers, but bicycles and kick scooters should be left at home.

  • Paid parking is available next to the park. The parking areas are shared by guests of Vildriket, Bergshotellet, Järvsöbacken, and Järvsö Bergscykel Park. There is no designated disabled parking specifically for Vildriket, but you are welcome to drive all the way to the entrance to drop off your party and then park your car in the parking area below.

  • Smoking is prohibited throughout the park. There is a designated smoking area only outside the entrance, and we appreciate your respect for our animals and fellow visitors.

  • The wooden walkway passes through beautiful, untouched forest nature that we aim to preserve. We kindly ask you to dispose of any litter in the trash bins provided within the park.

  • Take your time. The animal enclosures are large, so you might not see the animals right away.
