I had no idea there was a zoo so close to me that was open all year-round!! This place is free to visit and such a great way to spend part of your day, even in the winter! I highly suggest going during the otter feeding time, it was incredible watching them eat through the glass. Thank you for the awesome experience Riverview Park amd Zoo staff!

The park is amazing for a day out with family. The kids play area has different sections for different age groups. The splash pad is also very nice for the kids to enjoy. The zoo area is great with a lot of animals to see. I had never seen a sloth before. The parking and zoo are free here. They do accept donations though.
All in all a great place to see a lot of things and relax in the park.

I really enjoyed my visit to the Peterborough Zoo. It’s such a nice place to spend a few hours, and the best part is that it’s free to enter. The zoo is not huge, but it has a really good variety of animals, and everything is well looked after. The enclosures are clean, and you can tell the staff care about the animals. My favorite part was watching the monkeys and the big cats – they were so fun to see up close.
The walking paths are easy to follow, and there’s plenty of space to just relax and enjoy nature. It’s also a great place for kids, with the playground and picnic areas making it feel more like a family park than just a zoo. Parking was easy, and the whole place felt safe and welcoming.
Overall, it’s a hidden gem in Peterborough and definitely worth visiting.
