Nature, Animals, Family Time
Experience a real farm holiday! At the Friedrichshof in Bavaria, you’ll be up close and personal with our animals: Feed the goats, rabbits and donkeys, discover life in the paddock or help us take care of our animal residents. Surrounded by nature, every day is an adventure!
What child doesn’t dream of being allowed to ride a horse one day? At the Friedrichshof, this wish is fulfilled! In addition to riding, the little ones playfully learn how important it is to look after and care for a pony or horse. This is an unforgettable experience for all animal lovers!
Read moreNot so stupid donkeys! These animals are considered smart and deliberate, weighing up situations before they act – a behaviour that is often misunderstood. Unlike horses, they remain calm in difficult moments and love living in a herd. Patience pays off with them!
Meeting our animals is a real holiday highlight for many children. What does goat fur feel like? What do these animals eat? What noises do they make? Children can playfully answer these questions for themselves while discovering life in the countryside up close and having lots of fun in the process.
Dwarf rabbits are very popular with children – that is not surprising, given their cuddly fur and social nature. Our rascals in our rabbit enclosure, lovingly called “Hasenhausen,” love groups and are particularly happy when children pay them a visit. They will be thrilled if you feed them hay, vegetables or herbs. From their enclosure, they watch the colourful goings-on at the Friedrichshof and enjoy the little animal friends’ attention.
Isabell and Liane, our two Dexter cows, have already settled in wonderfully with us. Measuring only 1 to 1.10 metres, they remain the ‘little ones’ even in adulthood. These black, red or dark brown furry friends really catch ones eye – and they might greet you with a cheerful “Moooo”!
Get to know our alpacas, Steve and Rambo, who moved into our adventure farm in July 2024. These charming camelids like to communicate with a quiet hum and are always happy to welcome visitors. You can even accompany them on a hike 1 – 2 times a week! And you can also look forward to meeting Simba and Flip, who will be joining the Friedrichshof soon.
