About
San Diego Zoo Safari Park Youth Programs take place within the San Diego Zoo’s sister park, which is located to the northeast of the San Diego Zoo in Escondido. Youth participants can visit Denny Sanford Elephant Valley, an experience where visitors come face-to-face with elephants and coexist and roam among them. Families traveling between the San Diego Zoo and the San Diego Zoo Safari Park for youth programs are advised that the distance between the two parks is 35 miles and that travel time between them is typically 45 minutes to 1 hour.
San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance, which operates the park, is an international, nonprofit conservation organization.
