Järvzoo, now called Vildriket, is a wildlife park in Järvsö, in Hälsingland. It focuses on Nordic wild animals, including musk oxen, lynx, wolverines, arctic foxes and moose. Visitors can encounter animals in settings the venue describes as their natural habitats in the Hälsingland forest. The site also offers a film about Swedish musk oxen and the ongoing Muskox Project 2030, with a look at the animal’s story and the project’s work.
Vildriket says it is open every day throughout the year, including Christmas Eve, and that each season has its own appeal. Tickets can be booked in advance, which the venue says costs less. The Wolf Hotel is also on site: all five rooms have panoramic windows facing the wolf enclosure.
The park is near the centre of Järvsö, beside route 83, where large signs point the way to Vildriket. The venue says visitors can reach it by train, bus or car.
