Tips

Nationalpark Hainich

June 10, 2021

Here everyone can observe the otherwise shy wild cats and the rare lynx and learn a lot about these beautiful predators in an entertainingly commented feeding show. An associated exhibition in the wildcat barn completes the visit.

The opening and feeding times can be found at: wildkatzendorf.com/de/besucherinfo/oeffnungs-fuetterungszeiten.html
In my opinion, a visit is only worthwhile if you take part in a feeding session (with explanations, this takes 30-45 minutes). The 4 wild cats are kept in individual enclosures and usually hide well outside of the feeding time. The lynx don't always show up either. Single entry for adults currently € 7.00, a visit to the exhibition rooms in the wildcat barn is included. Payment for admission only in the wildcat barn, where you will receive a chip for the turnstile of the enclosure.

The commented feedings are particularly interesting. The times (3 * daily) are currently stored in the link above.
The two lynxes in the wildcat enclosure are still very shy and therefore can only be seen with a lot of luck.
