Apenheul Apeldoorn

Apenheul, the unique wildlife park in Apeldoorn, offers an unforgettable experience in the midst of nature. This green park is globally known as one of the first zoos where monkeys roam freely. Visitors encounter dozens of primate species in natural, spacious habitats. From bonobos and gorillas on island enclosures to curious small monkeys that come close to you: at Apenheul, you come face to face with our relatives.

The park is appealing to both young and old, with educational presentations, feeding moments, interactive play areas, and a sustainable and animal-friendly design. Thanks to its central location on the edge of the Veluwe, Apenheul is easily accessible and can be excellently combined with a stay at Van der Valk Hotel Apeldoorn - De Cantharel. Culture, nature, and comfort come together in one day.
