San Diego Zoo Safari Park, Escondido
This is huge! The all-new Denny Sanford Elephant Valley Experience, is now open!
When you come face-to-face with the largest land animals on Earth, it’s not just your mood that shifts—it’s your perspective. Suddenly, everything feels bigger. You don’t just witness an elephant’s majesty; you share common ground.
At Denny Sanford Elephant Valley, you’ll experience what it’s like to coexist with this magnificent species. Walk alongside the herd, connect with them on an entirely new scale, and become part of a movement working to secure their future for generations to come. Here, you’ll feel inspired to stand for something larger than yourself, as we all work together to protect these gentle giants.
Elephant Valley was made possible through the generosity of more than 5,200 donors. We extend our heartfelt thanks to all whose support helped bring this new experience to life.
