Tipi-Zeltplatz der Umweltsation Tierpark Sommerhausen
The Tipi-Zeltplatz of the Environmental Station at Tierpark Sommerhausen is a camping site with traditional tent structures arranged on a meadow within the animal park grounds. It provides camp beds for sleeping, washing facilities, toilets, a small log house and wagon for storage or shelter, and a communal fire pit for group activities.
The animal park was founded in 1993 and has grown to become a place where humans and animals coexist. The environmental station connected the park to educational work and created job opportunities for people with disabilities working alongside others.
The campsite serves as a gathering space where school groups and families experience communal living in traditional tent structures. Evening campfire sessions bring visitors together to share time and create memories within the natural setting.
The site is easily accessible with free parking available nearby. Overnight stays can be arranged year-round but typically occur Monday through Friday, with the environmental station assisting in planning and organizing meals and daily routines for groups.
The campsite sits within the animal park itself, allowing visitors to wake in the morning surrounded by goats, sheep, and horses just beyond the sleeping area. This direct connection between accommodation and wildlife creates an immersive natural experience that typical campgrounds cannot offer.
