Opening times and tickets

Ähtäri Zoo is open every day from 15.5. to 16.8.2026

Please note that dogs and other pets are not allowed in the zoo, the Luontotalo Mesitassu or the Farm. While we love pets too, they can stress the zoo’s wild animals and pose a risk of spreading diseases. However, there is a spacious dog park in the P2 area, which is open during the summer.
