Kingfisher Park

The park is located at 61 Prices Avenue in Emerald Hill and generally operates from Monday to Saturday. Its opening hours are typically 8:15 AM to 5:30 PM, though it stays open until 6:00 PM on Saturdays; notably, the park is usually closed on Sundays. As of 2025, entry fees for international tourists are approximately 5 USD for adults and 4 USD for children. The venue is well-equipped for day visitors, featuring clean restroom facilities, ample parking, and designated braai (barbecue) stands. There is also an on-site coffee shop that serves light meals, breakfasts, and refreshments, making it easy to spend a full day here. For those interested in fishing, the park allows visitors to use the ponds for a small fee, and equipment hire is often available at the main office.

To make the most of your visit, it is highly recommended to bring your own picnic blankets and chairs, as the best spots are often on the open lawns under the trees. If you plan on fishing, check the water levels in advance, as they can fluctuate depending on the season; bringing your own rods and tackle is also a more cost-effective option than hiring on-site. The park is a popular venue for birthday parties and functions, so expect a more lively atmosphere on Saturdays. While the farm animals are friendly, children should always be supervised during feeding or interaction. If you intend to use the braai stands, you should bring your own charcoal and fire-lighting supplies. Lastly, the park maintains a peaceful environment, so visitors are encouraged to keep noise levels down and respect the tranquility of other guests.

Kingfisher Park is conveniently situated just 7 kilometers north of Harare’s central business district, making it a quick 15-minute drive. The easiest route is to head north on Second Street (Josiah Tongogara Avenue) and continue toward the Avondale and Emerald Hill areas. From the main roads, follow the signs to Prices Avenue. For international travelers, using a ride-hailing app like Vaya or Hwindi is the most seamless way to reach the park, as the destination is well-marked in their systems. If you are driving a rental car, the roads are fully tarred and in good condition, suitable for any vehicle type. While public transport via "kombis" (minibuses) to Emerald Hill is an option, you would likely need to walk a short distance from the main road, so a direct taxi is generally preferred.
