There are currently more than 200 animals of nearly 60 species in the park. Visitors can encounter various animals such as bears, wolves, golden jackals, foxes, raccoons, snowy owls, lynxes, wildcats, ravens, squirrels, and hedgehogs, among others. In addition, all of Hungary’s large game species can be observed here, and you can get up close with two of them, the friendly fallow deer and moufl on, in the petting zoo area where feeding the animals
is also possible.
You can easily find your way around the meandering trails and interactive panels in the wildlife park without the help of an expert, but of course, you can also choose to join guided tours on various topics. Every day, there are feeding shows where you can see how animals work together with their caretakers. During the weekends, themed programmes offer all-day entertainment for both children and adults, with animal shows, guided tours, and playful, interactive stands.
In addition to all this, carefree relaxation is complemented by themed playgrounds, an exciting adventure park, and the Törpevasút (Smurf Train), where children can meet the residents of Hungarian poultry yards in a beautiful forest setting.
