Choosing a holiday destination with children is not an easy task, but quite realistic. This fascinating animal tour will be of interest to both kids and their parents. Workshops on the farm, dog sledding, zoo - a great way to spend time in the fresh air, to bond and introduce your child to wildlife.

Zoo "On the Lightbulb"
Zoo
Open Details
Check out the largest private zoo in the Leningrad region - "Na Lampushka". More than 400 animals live here. Some of them were rescued from the hands of poachers, some were picked up injured in the woods. Bobcats, raccoons, chanterelles, polar foxes and deer - you can admire the pets forever! You can also take a walk with some of the animals, and in winter you can ride in a sled pulled by huskies.
Park is open from 10:00 to 19:00. Please note that access to the zoo with baby carriages is limited (no more than 5 at a time in the park): it's better to leave them in the car. We also advise to leave bags and backpacks in the car.
