The landscaping of the Australian enclosure at Zurich Zoo is one of our highlight projects. The new enclosure was opened in 2018 and has delighted numerous visitors ever since. The animal inhabitants of the new enclosure should feel as comfortable as possible. The flowing modeling of the Australia and lorikeet house with special substrate created a unique atmosphere. Thanks to the water points, sand pools and precisely planned planting, visitors to Zurich Zoo enter a breathtaking area that enchants with its inhabitants.
