Catering options

Combine your tour with an aperitif

You can find the aperitif offer here (in German).

Please note: You can only order the aperitif after your booking has been confirmed. You will receive the link to the order form in the confirmation e-mail.

After the heavy thunderstorms there is a lot of loose dead wood and fallen trees can block paths. Please be careful and do not rest under scrawny trees.

Due to the ongoing heat wave and drought, there is a considerable risk of forest fires in the canton of Zurich (level 3 out of 5). We kindly ask you not to light fires in the Sihlwald. You may use the marked fireplaces in the Langenberg Wildlife Park. Please always extinguish the fire completely.
