Short Break with Kids in the Leipzig Region

Intensive animal experiences are to be had at the lovingly created little animal gardens and at Leipzig Zoo  with its Gondwanaland tropical hall, Himalayan high mountain landscape and new South America feature. We recommend you plan to spend the whole day here as there is so much to see! You can also visit your animal friends in the beautiful Eilenburg wildlife park and  at Delitzsch animal park! Somewhat smaller but also excellent venues to see animals are the O-Schatz Park in Oschatz and the Dornreichenbach animal enclosure in Lossatal. At this last animal park, you will even get to see rare breeds such as Costa Rica squirrels and Jacob sheep as well as the largest meerkat enclosure in Saxony. In some of the zoological areas, you are allowed to stroke and feed the animals.

Whether riding a bike along the Obstland Route where you can learn about everything from early fruit plantations in monastery gardens to current production methods or walking with „Billi Bockert“ on the Heide Biber Tour through the area where he used to live – all across the Leipzig region, the relationship between mankind and the forest is easy to experience and learn about on exciting tours, at ecological points of interest and forest education centres. And you can also have plenty of fun!
