Our animals love to be stroked

Cuddly encounters & around 700 sheep on the mountain

Hauser Kaibling is an animal kingdom! The petting zoo is a real highlight, especially for families with children. Spend relaxing hours surrounded by nature and get to know our gentle residents: goats, sheep, rabbits, donkeys, mini pigs and many other animals await you. Whether petting them lovingly, observing them or simply enjoying the fresh mountain air - unforgettable moments are created here. A special tip: keep an eye out for our shepherd, who tends his 800 or so sheep throughout the summer and provides exciting insights into alpine farming.
