Visiting Chimp Haven

As a sanctuary, Chimp Haven is primarily focused on providing an enriching life at sanctuary for the chimps, therefore we are not open to the public year-round. However, throughout the year, Chimp Haven holds special events and opportunities for visitors to experience the sanctuary.
