Just like in the wild…
An unforgettable animal experience is awaiting you at the Affenberg (“monkey mountain”)! Biologists and animal caretakers will guide you through the world of about 180 Japanese macaques without any barriers between you and the animals. You will learn plenty of interesting facts about the monkeys. During summer time you might even see them swim and dive!
Our macaques live as they would in the wild and are not trained or domesticated. Just like other wild animals, macaques do not want to be touched. We adhere strictly to animal welfare laws and also respect the ethical principles of primates.
For safety reasons, a visit to the monkey mountain is only possible with a guided tour. With your guide, you will be optimally informed and your experience with the wild animals is safe.
A guided tour lasts approx. 45 minutes. Reservations are not necessary. There may be waiting times during the high season (especially at lunchtime). Therefore, come early in the morning or after 2.30 pm – when visitor numbers are typically lower 🙂

Plan your visit…
Transporting baby carriages: We recommend parking baby carriages in the entrance area for the duration of the tour or leaving them directly in the bus/car. It is only possible to take a baby carriage with you if all compartments have been completely emptied and no bags are hanging on the trolley/stowed in the trolley .
Dogs: are considered a danger/enemy by the monkeys and are therefore not allowed in the enclosure with the free-roaming macaques! Thank you for your understanding. We have four dog suites where your dog can wait comfortably for you in the meantime (alone without other dogs). Fresh water is provided in the dog garden. This service is subject to availability and is free of charge.
Weather conditions: if it rains, you are welcome to bring umbrellas with you to the park and guided tour. If you don´t have any, we are happy to lend you some (subject to availability). Guided tours only need to be cancelled for safety reasons, in very bad weather conditions such as thunderstorms.
