🦍 About Congo Falls:
Step into one of the most advanced and expansive gorilla environments ever created. Congo Falls features:
🌱 Three distinct habitats
💧 Lush landscaping & dynamic water features
🧩 Engaging enrichment zones
🏔 The Mays Family Silverback Peak — the tallest gorilla tower in the world, standing over 70 feet, offering breathtaking views of the San Antonio skyline.
During construction, our team also uncovered a remarkable surprise: limestone from the same historic quarry used to build The Alamo over 300 years ago. This extraordinary find connects our new habitat to the deep heritage of our city, blending history with the future of conservation.
