Wildpark Feldkirch

Wildpark Feldkirch is a wildlife park located on natural terrain near Ardetzenberg mountain and home to about 140 animals including deer, wild boars, and lynx. The grounds feature spacious enclosures distributed across hilly landscape where animals can roam and behave naturally.

The park was founded in 1963 by Karl Lampert, a businessman and district hunting master, with the goal of making regional wildlife accessible to the public without charge. His vision was to create a place where people could see local animal species up close.

The park serves as a space for learning about native animal species and their behaviors in the region. Visitors encounter local fauna in settings that reflect how these creatures live in natural conditions.

The park is accessible daily throughout the year, with shuttle service running from Feldkirch on weekends. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes since the terrain is hilly and includes various walking paths.

An ibex named Felix was the park's first resident and became legendary for escaping repeatedly but always returning. This unusual behavior made him the unofficial mascot of the facility.
