The gondola ride to the top of Innsbruck was fantastic ! Would highly recommend for anyone thinking of doing that. The zoo itself was not overly big. Would be a nice day out for a family, but was not a highlight for us. I have seen that the best time to see any animals is early morning, and we went middle of day, so if wanting to see animals would try then.

This is one of the most no hassle experience we have had in Innsbruck. From the beginning to the end there were multiple places where we had to swipe these tickets including alpine zoo. This is the kind of no stress experience and swipe we need when we buy such tickets upfront from different countries. It not only reduces unnecessary anxiety in a new country, but also gives us the much needed enhanced customer experience and gratitude. Thankyou for being our solid partner.

We had a 1/2 day planned to visit Innsbruck. We have a 7 yr old. We purchased this on the drive and so glad we did! We went to the Top of Innsbruck and then the Alpeenzoo. We extended our day bc of these experiences. Wonderful experience!

Normally, I would have given it 5 stars, but the QR code didn’t work for us! We wanted to start right from the Alpenzoo to head to Top of Innsbruck first. Our QR code wasn’t valid—neither at the Hungerburgbahn nor after a walk to the Zoolasse. Since no one could help us, we drove to the Hofburg/Stadttheater parking garage to file a complaint at the ticket office at the valley station (where there isn’t even a ticket machine). This cost us parking fees at the zoo and a lot of time!!!! And before that, we had to call Headhunter, where we first went through an AI system and were then assisted in English. They were able to help us there, though, since all the online tickets purchased the day before weren’t working. We were issued physical tickets... From then on, everything was great!!!!! It’s impossible to determine exactly what caused the error or who was at fault, but in hindsight, that’s beside the point—because when everything works, the tickets are worth the money!!!! That’s why, unfortunately, only 4 out of 5 stars!!!!

It is a lovely zoo - very hilly as you would expect on the side of a mountain, but the animal enclosures are spaced about and you are able to go inside a lot of the bird enclosures.

Experience Alpine Zoo Innsbruck with a mountain ascent in one ticket, combining Europe's highest zoo with a scenic funicular ride to the summit.

Book a time slot online, then skip cash desks and scan your printed or mobile voucher at the Hungerburg funicular turnstile to start your ascent.

Ride the round-trip Hungerburg funicular high above Innsbruck, then use your included ticket to enter Alpine Zoo and explore Alpine region habitats.

Spend unhurried time inside Alpine Zoo, exploring naturalistic enclosures of Alpine species and learning about conservation and breeding efforts onsite.
