Wildpark Schwarze Berge

Wildpark Schwarze Berge is located in Rosengarten, Lower Saxony, near the southern border of Hamburg, spanning a hilly forest area of about 50 hectares. Since its opening in 1969, the park has specialized in native European and Nordic wildlife, currently housing around 1,000 animals in spacious enclosures. Residents include wolves, lynxes, brown bears, as well as various species of deer and birds of prey. A prominent feature of the park is the 45-meter-high Elbe-Blick observation tower, which provides a wide view reaching as far as Hamburg and across the Elbe valley. In addition to animal observation, the facility emphasizes environmental education, offering daily flight demonstrations and public feedings. The natural topography, consisting of hills, valleys, and lakes, shapes the appearance of the site and provides the animals with a near-natural habitat. The park is privately operated and remains open to visitors throughout the year.
