We are a unique, recreational facility offering attractions to people of all ages. Located just north of downtown Peterborough, Riverview Park and Zoo is a fabulous place to enjoy a leisurely stroll in a peaceful and tranquil setting while experiencing the natural beauty of Peterborough.
For decades, the zoo and park have attracted about a quarter of a million visitors a year. And no wonder – the zoo features 27 exhibits, with over 45 species, including Two-Toed Sloths, Yaks, Camels, Wallaby, Emu, Macaw, Lemur, Squirrel Monkey, Plated Lizard and Meerkat.
The park covers 55.5 acres and is the largest and most diversified playground in the city. It also features equipment for physically-challenged children.
