Petting zoo De Koperen Ezel
De Koperen Ezel is the largest free petting zoo. Besides having more than 40 donkeys we also have guinea pigs, goats, potbellied pigs, chickens, turtles, guinea fowl, turkeys, kangaroos, pheasants, peacocks and many other special and unique animals. In short, a petting zoo with a great variety of animals to admire and to cuddle.
Playground and Activity Paradise
Children can climb all around, jump on the bouncy castles, play in the sheltered ball pit and ride karts on the kart track! We have an indoor and outdoor playground where children can play their hearts out. Nice for a day out with the family, but also for school trips, children's parties and family and group outings.
A meal to close off the day
After a day filled with playing, walking the donkeys and cuddling the animals you can go for a bite at Eatery Epe. You could choose to eat pancakes with ice cream for dessert for only € 14.95 per person. Delicious pancakes are baked in a traditional way by our own cook and the cooking can be watched live!
