The biggest attraction is a petting meadow for parrots, where you can get up close and personal with amazons, macaws and cockatoos. The parakeet and small parrot aviary offers up-close animal experiences. The birds will eat out of your hand while a kangaroo hops past. You can see and experience the beauties of the African fauna up close in our walk-in African enclosure. In the rearing station, you can watch chicken chicks hatch and every day at 12.00 and 16.00 the baby parrots are fed here. Every day at 3 p.m., you can join the zookeeper at feeding time and even feed them yourself.
Guided tours for school classes of all ages, kindergarten tours and children's birthday parties are available by appointment.
There is a large adventure playground and two cozy coffee terraces on the grounds.
