Why you should go…

One of the oldest zoos in California, Sequoia Park Zoo sits within Sequoia Park's redwood grove and focuses on a compact, kid-friendly collection including red pandas, primates and a walk-through aviary. The surrounding park adds duck ponds, a rose garden and redwood trails, making it easy to combine a zoo visit with a walk among the trees. It's small enough to see in an hour or two.
