Have fun touring campus, visiting the live bear habitat, seeing the new stadium, and swinging on one of the many bench swings to be found on the beautiful Baylor grounds.
Cameron Park Zoo rests on 52 acres adjacent to the Brazos River in Waco, Texas. Lush native vegetation surrounds splashing waterfalls, a picturesque lake and ponds. And in the midst of all this beauty, visitors see that the wild ones not only survive in their natural habitat, they flourish. With natural habitats and close-up encounters, the animal collection housed at Cameron Park Zoo includes more than 1,731 animals, representing 300 species. In August of 2009, Cameron Park Zoo opened the Asian Forest, featuring critically endangered Orangutans, Sumatran tigers, and Komodo Dragons. Cameron Park Zoo is open daily except Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year's Day.
Cameron Park encompasses a range of landscapes from wonderful tree-lined roads, limestone cliffs to the smooth Brazos River. One can enjoy the wildflowers, mountain bike the rugged trails, ride a horse around the bridle path, or play a round of disc golf. Cameron Park is one of the state's largest municipal parks and an outdoor-lover's dream. Natives and tourists alike appreciate the park's vast resources.
