The ibex enclosure is being renovated
Until the end of the year, the animals will be in the meadow next to the ibex enclosure.
The ibex enclosure is over 75 years old. It therefore needs new flooring, new water and sewage pipes, and a new fence. The natural stone climbing rock, which the ibex herd likes to use, needs to be repaired in some places, in particular to provide the animals with more shade. A new walk-in area for visitors is also planned.
The ibex facility in Langenberg is already over 75 years old. It is currently being renovated. It needs a new floor covering, new water and sewage pipes and a new fence. The climbing rock made of natural stone, on which the ibex herd likes to spend time, is to be repaired in some places, in particular to provide the animals with more shade. A new, accessible area for visitors is also planned.
The ibex will remain in the Langenberg
During the construction phase, the animals will live in the meadow towards the red deer enclosure by the parking lots. They will continue to have access to the stables via a connecting corridor.
Access to the park is always guaranteed
The road towards the restaurant will practically always be accessible during the construction work. If there is a temporary closure, visitors and shuttle services will be diverted. If the weather conditions are right, the construction work should be completed by the end of the year.
Donations
The renovation project is dependent on donations. Would you like to support the renovation of the ibex enclosure for the benefit of the animals and the work of the zookeepers at Wildnispark Zurich? We would be very grateful for any donations !
