    DAY-OF PLAN

    Know the sequence before you go.

    Times from the operator are kept separate from Korea Era planning guidance.
    1. 01
      Choose the exact park component

      The zoo, theme garden, botanical facilities, lifts, elephant train, camping and neighbouring attractions do not share one ticket or one operating rule. Open the dated official page for the component that is the purpose of the visit.

    2. 02
      Confirm the return route before entering

      The complex is large and internal transport can queue or stop independently. Save the selected entrance, final station connection and walking alternative before moving into the zoo or garden.

    3. 03
      Stop adding distant zones

      Zoo and theme-garden admission closes before the grounds, and greenhouse admission can end earlier. Begin the return while internal transport and daylight still support the route.

    1. 01
      Before travel

      Choose the exact park component

      The zoo, theme garden, botanical facilities, lifts, elephant train, camping and neighbouring attractions do not share one ticket or one operating rule. Open the dated official page for the component that is the purpose of the visit.

    2. 02
      At arrival

      Confirm the return route before entering

      The complex is large and internal transport can queue or stop independently. Save the selected entrance, final station connection and walking alternative before moving into the zoo or garden.

    3. 03
      One hour before closing

      Stop adding distant zones

      Zoo and theme-garden admission closes before the grounds, and greenhouse admission can end earlier. Begin the return while internal transport and daylight still support the route.

    4. Traveler tips

    • Plan one primary component and one optional nearby stop; crossing the full complex casually can consume the day.
    • Use Daegongwon Station and the named entrance or facility as separate waypoints rather than routing only to the centre of the park.
    • Check animal, garden and transport notices on the morning of the visit because heat, weather, welfare and maintenance can change access.
    • Search “서울대공원” in Naver Map or Kakao Map before departure.
    • Recheck current hours, closures, tickets and transport with the operator on the day.
    • The catalogue pin is approximate; use the selected entrance for the final walking route.
