Wildlife up close: animal adventures in the Zugspitz Arena

Surrounded by goats, llamas, rabbits and other animal inhabitants, they discover a paradise of joy and curiosity. The animals always welcome their guests with open hearts and are happy to be petted. Here, the boundaries between humans and animals become blurred and moments of togetherness are created. Discover the new leisure paradise with camel rides, gold panning, a water playground and a fascinating outdoor nativity scene.
But that's not all! In addition to the world's largest rocking horse, there is also a giant slide and an impressive climbing pyramid. A fairy-tale world takes you on a journey into fantastic stories, the children's autodrome provides exciting racing action and the Franziskusturm tower with its wishing bell invites you to marvel. The experience is rounded off by the large playground, model railways and a coffee machine for cosy breaks.
Peruvian experiences: Discoveries with fur noses along the way
The llamas of the Tiroler Zugspitz Arena are not only animal companions, but also real characters who provide unforgettable moments on a family-friendly llama hike around the "Machu Picchu". Under the guidance of llama whisperer Heidi Hofherr in Biberwier, the llamas have cosy quarters with full board and also take holiday guests on adventurous hiking tours through the picturesque nature of the Tiroler Zugspitz Arena.
Heidi makes sure that every guest has the right llama at their side, be it a sporty companion or a relaxed contemporary. These tours can be found regularly in the events calendar and can also be booked individually.
