Visitor information

**In winter, 90% of the animals are visible. **The raccoons and the black bear are currently enjoying their long winter sleep, while the turtles that live outside are in hibernation. All other animals are visible and active in winter. A low season rate is in place to compensate for the absence of certain animals during winter, from November 1st to March 21st. This is a great opportunity to visit the animals at a lower price.

Of course the length of your visit will depend on the time you spend at each living space. On average, the visit takes approximately 1:30 to see all the animals and have the chance to observe them. The length of your visit will naturally be longer if you choose to take a break for lunch or a snack.

In winter, the trails are plowed and well maintained. However, we strongly recommend an all-terrain stroller suitable for winter conditions, or a sled. If necessary, we rent sleds on site at a cost of $5. Please note that it is possible to avoid the stairs of the duck aviary by entering and leaving the aviary at the same level.

Vending machines are available on site for snacks and beverages, but it is best to bring a packed lunch if you are looking for a complete meal. Our indoor lunch area is currently closed due to the sanitary measures in place.
