Animals from all over the world in Normande cattle country

Just 5 minutes from Lisieux, Cerza Zoo extends across almost 80 hectares of nature. For the well-being of the animals and to recreate original habitats and natural behaviour, the species at the zoo roam across large plains and open spaces.

More than 1,500 wild animals in semi-captivity

Lions, giraffes, rhinos, ring-tailed lemurs, white tigers, polar bears, pink flamingos… This gigantic zoo is home to more than 120 species from all over the world, representing the 5 continents.

Two visitor trails

Visitors can discover the park by two walking trails. The red trail, lasting 1 hour, invites you to discover African species. Lions, giraffes, white rhinoceros… The animals of the savannah, the great plains and rare birds await. On the yellow trail, which lasts 1 hour 30 minutes, follow in the footsteps of wild animals from every continent. Spectacled bears, wolves, primates, kangaroos… Why choose one trail when you can do them both!

A safari by mini-train

All aboard! Hop on the mini-train and set off on a 25-minute safari around the world. Sit back and relax as you watch the animals and take some snaps. Enjoy panoramic views of the Normandy countryside as you pass the zoo’s exotic animals, crossing the African and American plains. Let yourself be completely immersed. Selfie with the rhinos, anyone?

3D cinema with a conservation message

Follow Noé, a young visitor to Cerza Zoo who likes to tease and pester the animals, as Pépé the pelican takes him on a crazy adventure to raise awareness of the threats facing nature. Noé comes out of this ecological journey as a completely new person.

Feed the animals

Every day at fixed times, the public get the chance to help the zoo keepers to feed the animals. Accompanied by a zoo keeper, get up close and personal with giraffes, lemurs, lorikeets and red kangaroos… A truly unforgettable experience!

Rare encounters

Become a zoo keeper for the day! Cheetahs, giraffes, wolves, red pandas, Indian rhinoceroses, parrots, reptiles… For one hour, alone or in a small group (6 people maximum), experience unique moments up close with the animals as you help the zoo keepers to carry out their daily tasks.

Sleep among the animals

Extend your zoo visit experience with one or more nights in the park. Sleep among the animals in an eco-lodge, zoo’bservatory or safari tent! Unforgettable memories guaranteed!
