Description

Covering around five hectares, more than 50 animal species live here – from playful monkeys to fascinating wolves and curious dwarf otters. This family-friendly zoo focuses on forest-dwelling animals, combining close animal encounters with active environmental education and nature-based experiences.

A special highlight is the walk-in enclosures for clawed monkeys and alpacas, where kids and adults alike can get up close to the residents. Peacocks, bantam chickens, and rabbits roam freely along the paths, adding a lively atmosphere to the forest zoo.

Children will find a varied area with two playgrounds and a lovingly designed petting zoo, complete with junior zookeeper gear. For a lasting experience, you can join the "Zookeeper for a Day" program, celebrate a birthday party at the zoo, or take part in exciting themed tours.

Unique activities like the escape rally through the zoo creatively combine adventure, puzzles, and animal watching.

Wingster Waldzoo is open 365 days a year and offers free parking, rental of handcarts, barrier-free access, and a snack bar with fair prices. Certified with the "Kinderferienland Niedersachsen" seal and the "Travel for All" award, the zoo stands for family-friendliness and inclusion.

Discounted admission with the guest card.
