“You can fall asleep only a stone’s throw away from the animals and it takes camping to a completely new, cool level,” said Matt Zaremba, who is taking on the new role of campsite manager for the summer.
“The campsite is surrounded by fields and woods and is on the edge of Wildlife Park, so you can you experience the local wildlife as well as hearing the calls and roars of animals from the Wildlife Park. This is a first for us and we are looking forward to welcoming visitors.”
Each pitch at the campsite will have enough space for six people bringing one large or two small tents and one vehicle with safe distancing protocols in place.

“Guests can enjoy fantastic outdoor camping experience and get close to nature in a holiday like no other.”
Yorkshire Wildlife Park reopened on June 15.
The main area of the park has five km of paths with clear safe distancing notices and stringent cleaning procedures.
