Wildpark Gersfeld

Wildpark Gersfeld is a forested area with meadows where several European animal species live in spacious enclosures. The park contains separate sections for red deer, fallow deer, wild boar, and lynx among other inhabitants.

The park was established in 1972 as a sanctuary for European wildlife in the Hesse region. Since its creation, it has steadily grown in importance as a space dedicated to animal conservation.

The park serves as a place where visitors connect with local wildlife and learn about native species through direct observation. People come here to understand how these animals live in their natural state.

The best time to visit is from spring through fall when the grounds are fully open. Well-marked paths lead through the park, giving you enough time to walk through the different animal areas.

A pond within the grounds is home to wild birds and offers rare viewing opportunities. Visitors can observe raccoons and squirrels up close at designated feeding stations.
