Minnesota Zoo Adult Birding & Nature Walks

Adult Birding & Nature Walks*

Join a Zoo naturalist for an exclusive opportunity to look and listen for local birds and signs of other wildlife before or after the Zoo's open hours. Stroll the Treetop Trail, other Zoo trails, and/or staff-only trails and wooded areas in a small-group setting. Learn what’s been spotted at the Zoo, help add to our wildlife species lists, and find out how the Zoo supports birds, both locally and globally. Great for beginners and enjoyable for experienced birders and nature enthusiasts alike.

Basic binoculars and bird guides available to borrow or bring your own if you’d like.
