Lovely park. With a small zoo ,walled gardens very impressive pergola a nice cafe with a varied menu various ponds quite hilly with open parkland and woodland. limited parking but only a ten minute walk from golders green station

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children who enjoy combining animals with active outdoor play. Toddlers thrive on the playground and animal spotting, older kids can explore woodland trails. Golders Green station is a ten-minute walk, making it accessible without a car.

β€œThis is a great free zoo and park. Great to visit with children or just go for a walk. It also has some facilities, a cafΓ©, toilets, an area to play tennis and ping pong.”

β€œThe park is very nice and spacious, but the β€œzoo part” was a little disappointing. It’s very small, and all the animals are double-fenced (they’re in their enclosure and there’s another fence around it), which makes it difficult to take pictures. I’d definitely go back for the park itself and the general facilities, but not specifically for the zoo.”

Overview

Golders Hill Park Zoo offers free access to lemurs, deer, donkeys, and owls within a scenic North London park. Facilities include a large playground, walled gardens, cafe, tennis and ping pong courts, and shaded picnic spots. The zoo enclosures are double-fenced, which limits close viewing and keeps the setting calm and family-friendly. The terrain is hilly with open parkland and woodland trails.
