A new attraction has arrived! - Check out Congo Falls! Congo Falls is San Antonio Zoo’s most ambitious and immersive habitat to date, marking the return of gorillas to the zoo after more than 30 years. This two-acre, state-of-the-art habitat is designed to replicate the lush, multi-level terrain of the African jungle, providing an enriching environment for the gorillas and an engaging experience for guests. At the heart of Congo Falls is the Mays Family Silverback Peak, a revolutionary 70-foot-tall gorilla tower—the first of its kind globally. This structure allows gorillas to climb from their open-air habitat to an observation area atop the cliff wall, offering them panoramic views of the San Antonio skyline and the zoo’s event center, The Ralston. The habitat features expansive roaming areas, interactive browsing gardens, and naturalistic elements such as waterfalls and climbing structures, all designed to stimulate the gorillas’ natural behaviors and provide guests with multiple vantage points to observe these magnificent animals. During the construction of Congo Falls, an unexpected historical discovery was made: the excavation unearthed limestone from the very quarry that supplied stone for the construction of the Alamo over 300 years ago. This finding deepens the connection between the zoo and San Antonio’s rich history. Congo Falls is more than just a habitat; it’s a testament to the zoo’s commitment to conservation, education, and innovation. By bringing gorillas back to San Antonio in such a groundbreaking habitat, the zoo offers an unparalleled opportunity for guests to connect with these incredible animals and learn about the efforts to protect them in the wild.
