Adler- und Wolfspark Kasselburg, Wildlife park at castle grounds in Pelm, Germany
The Adler- and Wolfspark Kasselburg is a wildlife facility spread across 20 hectares around a medieval castle in the Eifel region. The grounds include large forest areas and open spaces where eagles, falcons, and wolves live in settings close to their natural environments.
Kasselburg castle was built in the 12th century and stands on dolomite rock above the Kyll River. The double towers of the ruins still shape the appearance of the Gerolstein region today.
The park shows visitors daily how birds of prey fly and how wolves eat, helping them understand the relationship between people and wildlife. These events help explain why these animals matter for nature.
Visitors can explore the park on foot, with paths through wooded areas and several viewing points where you can stop and rest. Sturdy shoes and weather protection are helpful since the ground is sometimes hilly and conditions can change quickly.
The park is home to one of Western Europe's largest wolf packs, which visitors can watch during feeding times. This chance to observe them reveals behaviors you rarely see elsewhere.
