Flamingo Lagoon

Highlight • Structure

Visitors enter the lagoon through a gate and a lock, where they cross a winding wooden bridge before standing in the middle of a huge aviary without really noticing. That is what makes the lagoon so charming.

Aviary at Cottbus Zoo

Even with an afternoon temperature of 31 degrees in the shade and a cloudless sky, a visit to the zoo is recommended. Most of the trails are shaded under tall trees.

First visit to the Zoo Cottbus for this year done. As always, all generations are represented and built on every corner to make it more beautiful for animals and humans. The price-performance ratio is completely justified here and, like every year, it is certainly not the only visit.
