Regularly holding family-friendly events and constantly educating, the Utica Zoo is an important part of our community.

With hundreds of animals to care for and 30 acres of land to maintain, the zoo reaches out to the community for the support of volunteers and non-paid interns alike. However, as with any operation, they rely on the interest of visitors to help them maintain and improve their historic venue.

Don't miss the wild side of Utica! Experience nature, learn about animals, explore what the Utica Zoo has to offer. With over 200+ animals the Utica Zoo has something to offer year round. During the winter you can even snow shoe!

Located within walking distance from the Inn, the Zoo is ideal for an exciting morning or afternoon visit.
