Tiergarten Walding — Zoo in Walding

Tiergarten Walding and its collection

Tiergarten Walding, opened in 1979, is a zoo in Walding, Austria.

The collection was started in 1967 by the Mair family at a farm and inn in Pasching near Linz, and the family relocated in 1977 with almost all of the animals, a construction permit following in 1979. Karl Mair died in 1988 and Maria Mair in 1992. Angela Mair has run it since her parents' deaths.

• Bimbi-Land
• pony/horse riding
• A traditional Mühlviertel "Buschenschank" style snack bar is available on-site, serving regional refreshments and light bites featuring products from the farm.

• The park is designed to be stroller-friendly with accessible pathways, though visitors should expect gentle slopes typical of its hillside setting on the Mursberg.
