* DESCRIPTION *
Lange Erlen Tierpark is most known for the wonderful outdoor animal park which is open year round and is free to the public. This animal park houses an array of wild life such as wild pigs, goats, horses, deer, etc. The whole area gets very busy on sunny days in the school holidays and parking can be tricky too.
Across the road from the animal park is a playground with slides, and a merry go-around, and wooden train. Next door to it you will find a restaurant and on the other side mini go-cart track. The go-carts take 2chf coins and are only open in the afternoons when the weather is OK. Pony rides on Sunday afternoons.
What is lesser know about the Lange Erlen is the lovely beaches that form along the river Wiese as the water recedes in the summertime. These beaches are the perfect place for children of all ages to experience playing in the river. You will also find plenty of dogs enjoying chasing sticks into the cool water. The grassy banks along the river are a perfect place to picnic or rest after a leisurely bike ride.
