Wildpark Leipzig

If you fancy a relaxing trip into nature, Leipzig Wildlife Park in the Connewitz district is just the ticket. Covering around 42 hectares of woodland and meadows, you can experience native wildlife up close – from roe deer, wild boar and red deer to mouflon and fallow deer, as well as lynx, otters, raccoons and wildcats. The adventure trail, where you can observe the animals in their natural environment, is particularly exciting.

There is plenty for families to discover: two playgrounds, a petting zoo with around 150 animals from all over the world and even camel and pony rides provide plenty of variety for the little ones. In between, you can take a break in the Russian log cabin, the wildlife park restaurant or at the snack bar.

Admission to the wildlife park itself is free, so even a spontaneous visit is no problem. The park is easily accessible by tram or car, allowing you to spend an eventful day in nature just outside the city gates.

Conclusion: Leipzig Wildlife Park is ideal for families, couples or friends who want to observe animals, play outside and simply switch off – a worthwhile day trip in the heart of nature.
