Knowsley Safari

Knowsley Safari Warmly welcoming visitors for over 50 years. A stunning five mile safari drive, foot safari, events and talks on a wide variety of animals.

Our 550-acre drive-through safari is home to many animals from around the world. https://linktr.ee/KnowsleySafari Opened in 1971, Knowsley Safari is now in its 50th year. One of the biggest and best safari parks in the UK, Knowsley Safari Park has a 5-mile safari drive with lions, white rhino and our infamous troop of baboons. The park also has a large walk-around area, offering close-up views of

giraffe, tigers, meerkats and many more animals. The park is open daily from mid-February until November, and remains open weekends only throughout the winter.

Introducing Gizmo 🤎

Born on 18th July to mum Brea and dad Ralph, Gizmo is already making a name for himself in the herd.

It is with great sadness that we share the loss of Sam, our 15-year-old African lion.
 
Sam was a much-loved member of our pride and an unforgettable part of the Safari experience for countless guests over the years.

Following a sudden decline in his health, the difficult decision was made to humanely euthanise him to prevent any suffering.

Sam will be remembered fondly by the keepers who cared for him every day and by everyone who had the privilege of seeing him.

Wildlife Wednesday 🐝

Meet the buff-tailed bumblebee!

One of our The Outdoors People team spotted this queen burrowing into the ground in our woodland, and she may have been searching for a safe place to nest or shelter. Bumblebees often make their homes underground, sometimes using old rodent burrows.

Want to give bees a helping hand? 🌼 Leave some areas wild, plant bee-friendly flowers and avoid pesticides where possible.

Sometimes the best thing we can do for wildlife is simply give it a little more space. 💚
