The Kleefeld Wildlife Park is an idyllic destination that is particularly suitable for families with children. Above Strobl on Wolfgangsee Located in the heart of the Indian Ocean, the park offers a unique opportunity to experience wildlife up close and spend an unforgettable day in nature.
The Kleefeld wildlife park covers a huge area of 250,000 m², in which around 250 animals live. Red deer, ibex and fallow deer, ibexes and wild boars are among the species that can be found here. The petting zoo is a particular highlight for children. They can buy food, mostly corn kernels, from the vending machine and feed the trusting goats and rabbits that are kept in a walk-in enclosure. Occasionally the animals also run around outside the enclosure, which increases the fun factor for the little ones.
There are around 100 parking spaces right at the entrance, so getting there is no problem. The adventure begins right here, and the children can hardly wait to get close to the animals.
Autumn is a special experience when the deer rut begins in the wildlife park. Every year from the beginning of September, the impressive roaring of the deer echoes through the park. The strongest males fight for the females, while the weaker animals often have to retreat. In rare cases, there are fights for dominance between equally strong deer, with the winner leading his pack - often consisting of up to 40 females - and taking care of the offspring. For visitors, this spectacle is an unforgettable moment that shows nature from its wild side.
In addition to the wild animals, the Kleefeld Wildlife Park also offers a bee educational trail, which is ideal for family outings. The approximately one-hour circular trail is suitable for strollers and provides exciting information about the world of bees for both young and old. Those who want can round off their visit with a culinary experience at the Kleefeld Inn. The house's speciality is game dishes - but whether you tell the children this is up to each individual.
