Things to do in Evansville, Indiana (IN): The Best Outdoor Activities
Situated on a gentle bend of the Ohio River at the hub between Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky, Evansville is a sizable metropolis with small town friendliness. There is something for everyone to discover, whether it is a chance encounter with Lady Luck on the riverboat Casino Aztar, a brisk hike along the Riverfront promenade, a step into history at Angel Mounds State Historic Site, fun with the family at Kid's Kingdom or an escape to verdant Pigeon Creek Greenway Passage.

We go to every zoo on our road trips that we can. This small zoo is run by the City of Evansville and is a gem. We went on the Friday of the 4th of July week and expected larger crowds, but it was not crowded at all. They don't give a AAA discount but our admission for both of us was $19. Their grounds are kept immaculately. Free parking. Clean rest rooms. Really great restaurant grill for food, no sweet stands and only one souvenir store which is unusual for most zoos. So no constant opportunities for kids to beg for goodies. We got to feed the giraffes for only $2!!, attended a free rhino talk, and we got to see them feed the jaguar. There are lots of filtered water stations thoughout the park. Really a great half day activity.
