Jeddah Jungle Park (also called “Jeddah Jungle”) is a large mixed-use wildlife & amusement attraction in Jeddah. It is part of the Jeddah Season festival, combining animal encounters, adventure sports, children’s play-areas, and immersive nature-themed experiences. It aims to be both entertaining and educational — ideal for families, tourists, school groups, and nature lovers.
Location
- The Park is located on Asfan Road, Jeddah.
- It appears during Jeddah Season (which takes place at designated dates), so the park is a festival-zone rather than a permanently open zoo or amusement park.
- Google Maps reference and exact access usually given via the event’s website. For example, the ticket site for Jeddah Season led to map coordinates near Asfan Road.

- As it’s a seasonal event, the park is open only for certain periods (e.g. during Jeddah Season) rather than year-round.
What Makes it Engaging / Unique
- The combination of wildlife + adventure + entertainment in one place. Unlike a standard zoo or theme park, this blends games, shows, nature, and animal interactions.
- Informative and sensory: not just viewing animals, but walking treks, feeding, seeing rare species. Great for families and nature lovers.
- Conveniently accessible in Jeddah (for locals and tourists), so works well as a midday or non-match day outing during big events.
- Theming, staging, interactive exhibits bring more engagement than passive observation.
Tips for Visitors
- Book in advance: tickets may sell out, especially during weekends or event high days.
- Check the schedule: confirm whether the park is open during your travel dates, especially since Jeddah Jungle is seasonal.
- Visit earlier: to avoid heat (if outdoor parts) and crowds.
- Wear comfortable shoes, carry sun protection (if parts are outdoors), water, etc.
Plan for transport: since the park is on Asfan Road, make sure you know how you’ll get there (car, taxi, ride-share).
