4 winter tips for unforgettable animal encounters

1. to the ibex spectacle
Watch the kings of the Alps during the mating season. The male ibex "plead" for the favor of the females with a special posture: they tilt their heads back and raise their tails. The animals stick out their tongues in order to smell the female's scent hormones as well as possible.

2. clear view of lynx and wolf
Due to the season, many trees are bare - the shy lynx and wolves are therefore easier to spot than in spring or summer. With a little patience, the predators can be seen changing their hiding places or searching for food. However, as with all our animals, the same applies here: Patience and a bit of luck are the top priorities for successful animal spotting in the Langenberg.

3. watch out: hibernators!
Our marmots have crawled into their burrows and are hibernating - as are the dormice. The two bears save their strength during hibernation and sleep a lot. You will encounter all the other animals in the Langenberg even in the cold season - they have other strategies for surviving the winter well.

4. warm body and soul
Every Saturday and Sunday, you can warm your body and soul in our store by the bear enclosure: You will find cuddly toys for the little ones, games and toys as well as all kinds of souvenirs for your loved ones. With a little souvenir, you are sure to remember your visit for a long time to come!
