Hellbrunn Animal Park
A zoo in natural surroundings with over 400 animals.
At the gates of Salzburg and at the foot of the Hellbrunn mountain the Zoo has many attractions such as: tropical house, outside range for the Big Cats or watch the free flying Goose-vultures when feeding.
More than 400 hundred native and exotic types of animals are kept here in conditions as near as possible to their own natural environment. Hellbrunn is very concerned to maintain the natural harmony of the animal park location at the foot of the Hellbrunn Mountain with that of the animal's natural habitat. Through numerous reconstructions during the last years a quite exceptional Animal Park was created - not only for visitors. The use of fences and bars is avoided. 'Zoo living space' in which both small and large animals can live together as nature intended is considered one of the singular features. Divided into different geographical zones the visitor experiences the Hellbrunn animals in a natural environment. So for example rhinoceros, antelopes, and guinea fowl romp together in the African Savannah. Other areas show the Eurasian fauna (bears and lynxes, mountain goats, marmots, and fish otter) or other interesting animals.
