Hertfordshire's Paradise Wildlife Park will remain open to visitors following the news that all of the county will be entering Tier 3 from Saturday.

Managers at the zoo in White Stubbs Lane, Broxbourne, have made some adjustments to make sure all visitors are safe.

This includes closing some indoor attractions now that Paradise Wildlife Park will be in Tier 3 – the toughest tier for restrictions.

In an update to earlier advice, a spokesperson for the zoo said: "We are open to all visitors, not just Hertfordshire residents.

"As long as they are well and not showing Covid symptoms we will welcome them."

To adhere to the government guidelines, the following areas will be closed or changed onsite as from December 19, 2020:

  • Tumble Jungle (Indoor Play Area).
  • Paradise Lagoon (Outdoor splash park).
  • The Reptile Temple will be closed.
  • Amazon & Beyond will be closed.
  • The Rainforest will be closed.
  • Safari Diner will remain open but as a takeaway service only.


A PWP spokesperson added: "To help keep our animals, team and visitors safe, we would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone to please refrain from visiting if you are displaying any symptoms of coronavirus (new continuous cough, loss of taste/smell and a high temperature).

"We would also like to advise all visitors to familiarise themselves on the guidance of their tiered area before visiting Paradise Wildlife Park."

Social distancing and general safety measures are in place across the site to ensure the zoo keeps everyone as safe as possible during their visit.

Managers have implemented a one-way system, installed additional hand sanitiser stations at regular intervals across the site, and taken many other precautions to give you and your family peace of mind.

They are also limiting the number of tickets available each day to avoid overcrowding.
