Great Plains Zoo is Sioux Falls' main family wildlife attraction, with animal exhibits, play areas, and links to the Delbridge Museum collections. It is easy to fit into a city visit because it sits close to other west-side parks and attractions.
The zoo is most useful if you are travelling with children or need a relaxed half-day away from downtown. Pair it with Falls Park and the Washington Pavilion for a balanced Sioux Falls itinerary.
