About this adventure

Happy Hollow Park & Zoo is designed for toddlers and elementary school children. The park features gentle rides popular with young children, including the Pacific Fruit Express junior roller coaster, a mini carousel, and a frog hopper ride. In the zoo area, visitors can observe jaguars, ring-tailed lemurs, red pandas, and meerkats up close, and pet pygmy goats in the contact farm. The weekend puppet theater presents interactive short plays based on classic fairy tales. All park pathways are accessible with gentle and wide ramps, allowing easy stroller access, and dedicated stroller parking is available at ride entrances. The park has two dedicated nursing rooms and all public restrooms are equipped with family stalls and step stools for young children. This experience is suitable for families with children aged 1 to 10. Visitors may wish to arrive when the park opens to avoid afternoon queues. The Picnic Basket restaurant offers healthy children's meals, and shaded picnic areas are available for those who bring their own food.
