Cuddle The Most Adorable Farm Animals At Griffith Park Pony Rides And Petting Zoo In Southern California
Time spent around animals is always time well spent. Just being around our furry friends can help reduce stress and create joy. In Southern California, there is a wonderful place where you can take the whole family to cuddle adorable farm animals and even take pony rides. Let’s have a look.
Griffith Park Pony Rides and Petting Zoo was established on four acres within Los Angeles' Griffith Park in 1948 and provides a very affordable day for the entire family.
All pony rides are just $5 per person and include two laps around the ring. Depending on skill and age, you and the kids will have a choice of a slow pony, good for those over age one; a medium pony which Is good for those over three years old; or a big pony which is ideal for ages seven and up.
For the cost of just $5 per child (the same cost as a pony ride), kids can partake in what's called the 'Animal Care Experience.' During their time in the petting zoo, they can pet and groom the animals with a brush that's provided by an animal caregiver who also gives lessons on animal care.
