Discover the world of the lynx and observe these fascinating "brush ears" in their original environment. Especially from the viewing platform you can see the enclosure and watch the Luchs family exploring. Firstly, because the animals are well camouflaged and, secondly, because the enclosure is really quite large, a little patience is sometimes required until they can then be seen. In return, you get an almost unadulterated insight into the "wild" life of these fascinating big cats.

The enclosure is very spacious and good for the animals, but you have to be happy to watch one!

The Luxe were not disturbed by the visitors and are partly located very close to the pulpit. Bring patience and search well, pay attention to small movements.

Since the enclosure is well visible, but also very large, you sometimes need patience, until you see the lynx Who lynxes are staying at the front of the rocks, you have a wonderful view of these beautiful animals.

In the third year and after many attempts, I finally manage to spot the lynx. A great emotion also because it seems that lately it is a rare event. It is rumored that after thugs have decided to snowball these wonderful animals, their behavior has become very suspicious. Human stupidity has no limits ...

Patience and a bit of luck are called for if you want to observe a lynx - the lynx enclosure is smaller than that of the wolves, but large enough and largely wooded so that the animals can withdraw easily.

According to the information board, lynxes are active at dusk - this should be taken into account when planning your timetable.

The last time I was in the animal enclosure in Ludwigsthal, the lynx enclosure was being mowed. For the animals, of course, pure stress, but for me as a hobby photographer it was an absolute stroke of luck - I've never been able to photograph the lynx so well.
