Make This Summer Wild!
School’s out, the sun is shining (fingers crossed!), and adventure is calling! This summer, escape the ordinary and dive into nature-filled fun at Beale Park — your perfect family day out in Berkshire.
Whether you’re a regular visitor or planning your first trip, there’s something new and exciting to discover around every corner. Here’s why Beale Wildlife Park is the ultimate destination for a summer filled with smiles, splashes, and unforgettable animal encounters.
Meet Amazing Animals
From cheeky meerkats to majestic owls, playful lemurs to curious capybaras — our animal residents are ready to welcome you!
Make sure to join our daily animal talks and feeds, where our knowledgeable keepers share fascinating facts, stories, and behind-the-scenes glimpses into how we care for each species.
And don’t miss our newest arrivals — including baby binturongs and baby goats — who are already capturing hearts and causing mischief!
Cool Off in the Splash Pool
Bring your swimsuits! Our splash pool is back open for summer, offering the perfect place to cool down after exploring the zoo.
Ideal for little ones, it’s a great way to recharge before your next wildlife encounter. Just don’t forget your towel!
All Aboard the Train
Hop on our train and enjoy a relaxing ride around part of the zoo — a family favourite that’s as scenic as it is fun. It’s a great chance to rest your feet and spot even more animals along the way!
Explore & Play
There’s more to Beale than animals — let imaginations run wild in our beautifully landscaped gardens and playgrounds. Pack a picnic or enjoy lunch at our café, then stroll through the tranquil Japanese Gardens or stop for a refreshing ice cream treat.
