Colchester Zoo has reopened the full pathway around Elephant Kingdom so visitors can enjoy the views from our ‘Elephant Bush Walk’ giving visitors the chance to walk the full length of our two elephant paddocks including the chance to see our bull elephant, Tembo, in his outdoor area from a much closer view point than before. Visitors will also see Zola our other African elephant who shares her home with Tembo. Along the bush walk you will also learn more about this magnificent species!

Elephant path edit

Other than offering more viewing to visitors of the elephants this path also creates a shortcut between our African species at Kingdom of the Wild and Elephant Kingdom to our Koi Niwa and Sensation Station areas!
