Rotwildpark Stuttgart

Very nice game park with rest stop

The red deer park as an example of a historic pasture forest has been a nature reserve since 1939. In 1958 the conservation area was expanded to include the wild boar park. The forest administration maintains numerous recreational facilities such as playgrounds, barbecues, shelters and a forest educational trail. Attractions are the Bärenschlössle and the three game park lakes.

The whole area is very nice but overcrowded

Always a worthwhile destination, be it early in the morning or at dusk in the evening. And of course a nice destination by day. Especially with children always a great trip and the Wildscheingehe is right next door.

Very nice to be able to observe the animals

Very nice game park with Rastmögkichkeit

very spacious enclosure

The red deer park is a nice stopover on a walk around the Bärenschlössle.

Very nice destination with a possible detour to the Bärenschlössle with good hospitality

Even if there are no animals at the moment, there are beautiful hiking trails around it

The park was laid out in 1815 under King Friedrich I and stocked with 568 red deer and 138 fallow deer. Initially, only designated routes were accessible to citizens for a fee. The barriers only fell with the November Revolution in 1918. The service tree and the rare service tree can be found in the up to 400 year old trees of the park.

The protected area in the west of the city was registered in 1939 with a size of 518.5 hectares in the Reich Conservation Book. In 1958 the area with parts of the wild boar park and the Pfaffenwald on the northeast and south side was expanded to the current size of 830.5 hectares. The predominantly forested area was formerly used as a hut forest. Today the forest is used for forestry and serves as a local recreation area.

The nature reserve is part of the FFH area no. 7220-311 Glemswald and Stuttgart Bay. The Büsnauer Wiesental nature reserve borders directly in the south.

The nature reserve includes the three man-made park lakes, the Roman House and the Bärenschlössle.

Better avoid weekends with nice weather - then it's more like a sliding park ...

When the weather is nice at the weekend, it has the character of a pedestrian zone. Otherwise very nice.

Nice destination near the Bärenschlössle.

Here you have a great view

Large enclosure for the deer

It's a very, very varied hike. Many different paths with beautiful highlights such as the tree art and of course the lakes. All hell is going on here at the weekend, so I wouldn't recommend it because half of Stuttgart is there

Nice walk, circular route possible, also for the disabled. 2.2 km circular route from the parking lot. Lots of benches available

One of the popular excursion destinations from Stuttgart is the red and wild boar park, which is around three kilometers from Solitude Palace. The park, around the idyllic Bärensee, is located in the district of Stuttgart-West and offers pure relaxation. The wildlife park with the historic Bärenschlössle includes five lakes, which were important for the drinking water supply of Stuttgart until the new millennium.

The Bärenschlössle in the red and wild boar park used to be a pleasure palace belonging to Duke Carl Eugen of Württemberg and is now a restaurant. The popular Schlössle is named after the nearby Bärenbach. After a fire, the Bärenschlössle was rebuilt true to the original in 1997. A hiking trail leads from Carl Eugen's former pleasure palace to Solitude Palace, the duke's former summer residence. In the east of the park you can observe deer or wild boar in the wild. A forest educational trail on the history of the Glemswald leads through the park.

Location + history:
The deer enclosure is located a little north of the Bärenschlössle. The red deer park has been a nature reserve since 1939, and in 1958 the reserve was expanded to include the wild boar park. Points of attraction are the Bärenschlössle and the three wildlife park lakes.
The red and wild boar park in Stuttgart's Glemswald is probably the best-known nature reserve in the Stuttgart region. Two areas have been fenced off within the nature reserve. Wild boars are kept in one of these areas ("suckers"). The second fenced area houses red deer ("deer enclosure")
You can go around the deer enclosure on forest paths. The fenced area is so big that the game can hide between the trees and you don't get to see the animals as a walker. But that's only half as bad.
The deer enclosure is also worth visiting for a second reason. The area within the fence is a biotope in accordance with Section 32 of the Nature Conservation Act of Baden-Württemberg.
The biotope is called "NSG Rotwildpark-Rotwildgatter" and has an area of 5.3 hectares. The biotope includes remnants of historical forms of cultivation, specifically remnants of a Hutewald (Hutewald is a forest in which cattle used to be herded). The biotope description reads: "Well-preserved hut forest areas with beech and oak. Imposing trees and lots of dead wood. The red deer enclosure was expanded in the north so that the adjacent forest areas can develop in the long term like hut woods."
You can now walk around the deer enclosure on forest paths. The recommended direction is clockwise. The circuit around the deer enclosure is about 1.5 kilometers long.

Large and spacious enclosure for the deer and roe deer. Can be walked all around, beautiful circular route or as a contact point on the way to Bärenschlössle
