Enjoy a fantastic winter's day out! Discover Scottish wildlife and endangered animals of the world's mountains and tundra in the spectacular setting of the Highland Wildlife Park.

Drive around the Main Reserve in your own car and then investigate the walk-round area. We are open daily and our opening times in February are 10am - 4pm (last entry 3pm).

As you can see, like Sasha, one of our Amur tigers, most of our animals love this wintry weather!

MERCEDES IN THE SNOW!

The freezing weather over the last few weeks has been welcomed by Mercedes the polar bear. This is her first experience of a Highland winter and she has been very active since the first snowfall. Mercedes' enclosure is between the drive-round Main Reserve and the walk-round area, so she can be seen even if we have to shut the Main Reserve due to snow.
