Wildpark Grafenberg
Highlight • Structure
But completely without deer, because fallow deer live in the Grafenberg wildlife park - a medium-sized species of deer - which is often confused with roe deer.
One of the oldest game parks in Germany is located on the edge of the Grafenberg Forest, below the racecourse. Many native animal species live there in spacious enclosures on the almost 40-hectare area, and there are also a few immigrants such as mouflons and raccoons.
Unlike in the zoo, the approximately 100 animals can decide for themselves whether to show themselves to people, so patience is sometimes required."

Fallow Deer Enclosure, Wildpark Grafenberg
Highlight • Structure
Fallow deer are among the native deer species, but they differ considerably from the other two in size/weight, coat color – even the adults have spots – and antlers (shovel-shaped).
And – something many visitors don't know – no roe deer are kept at the Grafenberg Wildlife Park. They occur naturally throughout our forests and can therefore be observed outside the park.

Embedded in the scenic Grafenberg Forest, the wildlife park with its more than 100 animals is an attractive destination that is open 365 days a year with free entry.
In the 40-hectare enclosure, the animals decide for themselves when to approach and show people. Red deer, roe deer, mouflon and wild boar are at home in spacious, naturally designed areas. A special feature is the fallow deer enclosure. Here the wild animals, if they want to, can be seen up close and fed.
Visitors are allowed to feed the fallow deer and wild boar with raw vegetables (carrots, kohlrabi, potatoes, apples, pears, acorns and chestnuts) in moderation.
Other park residents are pheasants and partridges as well as - in the special predatory game enclosure - foxes, polecats, wildcats and raccoons. Apiaries, natural ponds and anthills complete the wildlife park's native family of animals.
Those who are interested can also learn and explore fascinating things about the local flora and fauna on the educational forest trail, various information boards and in the forest school. In addition to the main entrance at the wildlife parking lot and the side entrance at the racetrack, there is another entrance at Ratinger Weg.
