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.

Donation for the ibex plant

Check handover from Coop

Today, Wildnispark Zurich is making a big splash in the Coop newspaper. The reason for this is a generous donation from the Coop Regional Council Central Switzerland-Zurich for the renovation of the ibex enclosure.

Wednesday, 03. June 2026

During the winter months, the Wildnispark Zurich extensively renovated the ibex enclosure. The enclosure is already over 75 years old and was therefore somewhat outdated. The Coop Regional Council Central Switzerland-Zurich supported the renovation with 10,000 francs. Many thanks for this!

Further information can be found in the article published today in the Coop newspaper (PDF below).

The facility is now open to visitors on a guided tour. And if you would also like to make a donation towards the building costs, you can find the donation form here.
