Herberstein Full Moon Festival
Mystical Wildlife
Darkness is slowly falling over the Tierwelt Herberstein. Only the full moon casts its pale light on many of the animal enclosures. Under the title “Mystical Wildlife—The Magical Full Moon Festival,” we’re opening our gates in the evenings during summer vacation and warmly invite all zoo fans—big and small, young and old—to a spectacular moonlight festival.
The star animals of the evening are, of course, our wolf families. The Canadian Hudson Bay wolves, the timber wolves, and the polar wolves take center stage.
An enchanting full-moon night awaits many families. Visitors are often surprised by the sounds of the night—which may seem a bit spooky to you. Our nocturnal animals show their sweetest side in the evening. It’s pure goosebumps!
Herberstein Garden Castle offers guided tours as part of a “Mystical Adventure Tour Through the Deep Castle Cellar.” The highlight: the fire show on the river meadow.
Exciting program highlights:
- The spotlight is on nocturnal exotic animals—the loop trail is open
- Candlelight Tours and Cellar Tours at Herberstein Garden Castle from 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.

- Guided tours of the “House of Biodiversity” (at 8:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. each night)
