Steinwasen Park

Steinwasen Park is the family adventure and animal park in the forested hills outside Oberried, 25 minutes east of Freiburg on the B31 road. The park combines three things on 30 hectares of hillside: an adventure ride park (alpine slide, chair lift, rope courses, water rafting boats, climbing walls), an animal reserve (red deer, fallow deer, chamois, ibex, marmots, mountain goats, all viewable on marked trails), and the Hanging Bridge (a 218-metre suspension bridge over the valley that holds 500 people at a time and sways visibly when you cross). Adult admission EUR 34, kids (4-14) EUR 30, under 4 free, all rides and the bridge included. Open daily from late March to early November, 9:30 AM to 5 PM in peak season. The park restaurant (Waldhaus) serves a standard family lunch menu (Schnitzel, Wurstsalat, Pommes, EUR 10-16). For families based in Freiburg, the park is the natural full-day excursion for one of a 3-to-5-day trip.
