 Nature reserve in the north of Hamburg |
Duvenstedter Triftweg Hamburg, Hamburg 22397 Germany +49 (0)40 6076 1148 |
A really beautiful 800 hectare nature reserve is located on the northern outskirts of Hamburg´s suburbs. The Duvenstedter Brook consists of marshland, forests and patches of heather, and can be proud to call itself home to an impressive number of game species. There are special game-watching facilities for roe and fallow deer. Apart from deer and stags, the odd hare or partridge might show up, but only very few lucky people have ever been rewarded with the sight of a badger - no matter how quiet and patient they have been. At the nature reserve's information house, you can get records of all the different plants and animals here, as well as information on recent projects and activities. They also offer guided tours on weekdays. Review © 2007, Wcities |

 Hagenbeck's zoo |
Lokstedter Grenzstrasse 2 Hamburg, Hamburg 22527 Germany +49 (0)40 54 0001 x0 http://www.hagenbeck.de |
Hagenbeck's 100-year-old zoo is home to countless species of animals, a tropical centre, a dolphin show, several restaurants and a beautiful recreation park. Some of the animals live in special rocky environments, others in spacious water holes. Besides regular attractions like feeding time and elephant and pony rides, there are also jungle nights in the summer. The 'zoo school', horse-drawn carriage rides and several playgrounds provide an abundance of entertainment for kids. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Park, forest and deer reserve |
Alsterallee Waldenau Hamburg, Schleswig-Holstein Germany +49 (0)40 3005 1300 (Information für Touristen) |
The well-maintained Klövensteen is part of the Rantzau Forest, northwest of the city. It is a popular area for day trippers from Hamburg and further afield. It offers outdoor leisure activities for the whole family. There is pony riding and deer watching at the reserve, but you can also set out on long, quiet walks or even 4 to 5-hour hikes into the neighbouring areas of Schnaken and Butterbargmoor from here. A riding stable with picturesque trails is part of Klövensteen as well. To experience the landscape on horseback certainly adds a little extra thrill. You will find several nice restaurants and cafés along the way-some of which offer excellent traditional local cuisine. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Animals in beautiful scenery |
Rosengarten Vahrendorf Hamburg, Hamburg 21129 Germany +49 (0)40 8197 7470 http://www.wildpark-schwarze-b... |
This interesting game park, situated South of Hamburg, is easily accessible by public transport. You can take long, one or two-hour, walks in its beautiful 50 hectare grounds with forests, hills and valleys and a lake, while watching many different species of European game. Some of them may even be handled and fed. After you have had the pleasure of meeting otters, deer, lynx, boars, owls, rabbits, donkeys, wolves and all the others, you can relax at the restaurant or café, or have a barbeque or picnic on the lawns. Children also enjoy a visit to the nice playground, while older visitors can watch a demonstration of handicrafts at the park centre. Review © 2007, Wcities |
