Visitor information
A visit to the ALPENZOO is a special experience at any time of year! Almost all animal species can also be seen in winter, as only the marmots, reptiles and amphibians sleep through the cold season. Most young animals are born in the ALPENZOO from April to June, with ibex, chamois and roe deer born in May to June
