    Tips

    October 30, 2025

    Przewalski's horses, the last truly wild horses in the world, have lived in the Tennenlohe Forest near Erlangen since 2003. Since 2012, they have been supported by peacock goats, a rare Swiss breed. Together, they ensure that the open sandy areas of the former military training ground do not become overgrown with shrubs – an important contribution to the preservation of rare habitats and biodiversity.

    A well-marked circular trail leads directly alongside the enclosure. The starting point is the Turmberg car park. Information panels along the trail provide details about the animals and the history of the nature reserve. Please stay on the marked trails – straying off them poses a life-threatening danger due to remnants of military use.

      A large enclosure is available to the wild horses and peacock goats, in which they ensure that the open spaces are preserved.
