A wonderful zoo for such a small city.
hours of fun every time we go which is at least 3-5 times a year, plus a few zoo concerts.
This zoo has so many different exibits. Famous for elephants, it also has a great pacific marine exhibit.

This is the second year that we have had a family pass, which is so wonderful. With the pass you don't feel like you have to spend the entire day there. If my 15 month old is getting tired after only an hour we just go home, it makes for more enjoyable outings that happen more often. If you are parking make sure you get there before 10, otherwise parking is a complete nightmare, or just take the max.

We love the Oregon Zoo! We got the membership last year and it is so worth it. We probably went close to 10 times last Spring/Summer. It's a great place to just hangout, and even get a little exercise pushing the strolles up and down the hills. We like to take a picnic lunch and sit out on the grassy hill and let our daughter run around. Oh and can't forget the Zoo train! It's a huge hit with my 2 year old!

This is our favorite place to go. The family memberships are a great value and my kids love the concerts and running in the big grassy areas, doing special events and crafts, and of course seeing all the animals. Bring your own lunch and it's a very affordable family outing.
