    Very nice recreational area with a wildlife park. Here you can go for a nice walk and watch wild boars and deer. There is a really great playground for children. Overall, a very nice place in the south of Cologne.

    Winter wonderland today! ❄ Update: There's always something going on in Leidenhausen. So there was a running event today. That's all well and good, although there were already a lot of joggers moving through Leidenhausen. But what topped it all off: there you come around the corner with your dogs and your daughter, without thinking of anything bad, and you come face to face with a jogger who is calmly doing his big business on the edge of the meadow! So is it still okay? Sadly, men peeing on trees and walls while you walk past them is almost normal. But this has now reached the next level. Dear organizer: either provide your runners with a Dixiklos or ensure that the marshals make sure that no one gets relief on a show. Just disgusting and unacceptable! 🤭😠

    (Translated by Google) Nice nature reserve. Just right for everyone. Big playground. Deer and roe deer, wild boar and in the middle of it a café, which is not open all year round, but just the thing in summer. Children, dogs, athletes, cyclists, strollers, walkers ..... everyone gets their money's worth here. (Original) Schönes Naturschutzgebiet. Genau richtig für alle. Großer Spielplatz. Hirsche und Rehe, Wildschweine und mittendrin ein Café, welches zwar nicht das ganze Jahr geöffnet ist, aber genau das Richtige im Sommer. Kind, Hund, Sportler, Radfahrer, Spaziergänger, Walker.....hier kommt jeder auf seine Kosten.

    (Translated by Google) Always worth a walk. Relaxing and the children can still learn something if you go to the sanctuary where the owls etc. are in. (Original) Immer wieder ein Spaziergang wert. Erholsam und die Kinder können noch was lernen wenn man in die Auffangstation geht wo die Eulen usw drin sind.

    (Translated by Google) A nice place to get a little rest. Perfect for the whole family and their four-legged friends. Also for leisure sports walking running and cycling. A beautiful game reserve and Gut Leidenhausen with its bird sanctuary very nice (Original) Ein schöner Ort um sich ein klein wenig Erholung zu verschaffen.

    (Translated by Google) We are here so often that the wild boars now have names .. Despite so many people (especially since Corona) it is always clean. You can opt for 3 different sized walking "laps". There is a large playground, two "little houses" with banks, an avenue of trees and in the normal case you can see wild birds in the Greif Vogel station. There are deer that are not as trusting as the wild boar, so you have to be patient. And what I think is important to mention is species-appropriate food. Maybe !! - Can you set up a feed dispenser like in Brick so that people don't throw uncooked spagetti into the enclosure again. (Original) Wir sind so oft hier dass die Wildschwein mittlerweile Namen haben.. Es ist obwohl so viele Leute (vorallem seit Corona) immer sauber. Man kann sich für 3 verschieden große spazier-"Runden" entscheiden. Es gibt einen großen Spielplatz, zwei Pausen "Häuschen" mit Banken, eine Baum Allee und im normal Fall kann man Wilde Vögel in der Greif Vogel Station sehen. Es gibt Hirsche diese sind nicht so zutraulich wie die Wildschwein, man muss Geduld mitbringen. Und was ich wichtig zu erwähnen finde ist artgerechtes Futter.. Vielleicht!!- Kann man einen Futterspender Aufstellen wie in Brick, damit die Leute nicht wieder Ungekochte Spagetti in die Gehege werfen.

  • 4/5 Cornelia R. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Ideal for children Wild boar and deer up close. What I have to complain about is that affects almost all playgrounds. You are in the bright sun, not very pleasant at 35 degrees. (Original) Ideal für Kinder Wildschweine und Rehe hautnah. Was ich zu bemängeln habe, dass betrifft fast alle Spielplätze. Sie sind in der knalligen Sonne, bei 35 Grad nicht sehr angenehm.

  • 5/5 Alexander S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very nice area to relax for a walk and to find out about the environment. (Original) Sehr schönes Areal zum Entspannen ein wenig Spazieren zu gehen und um sich über die Umwelt zu informieren.

  • 4/5 Stephan S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Cool playground but especially on weekends it is very busy. However, if you don't have any problems with large crowds, you can theoretically go for a walk. (Original) Cooler Spielplatz aber besonders am Wochenende ist es sehr voll. Allerdings wenn man keine Probleme mit großen Menschenmassen hat,kann man theoretisch gut spazieren gehen.

  • 3/5 Michael F. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) "Wildlife Park" suggests something more than what you will find here. Wild boar, roe deer and the (currently closed due to the pandemic) owl station; that's it. But it is very easy to go for a walk - especially with children - provided that not too many fellow citizens come up with the idea, then it can get quite crowded on the main roads. The estate itself is impressive and worth seeing. (Original) "Wildpark" suggeriert etwas mehr, als man hier vorfindet. Wildschweine, Rehwild und die (aktuell pandemiebedingt geschlossene) Eulenstation; das wars. Aber man kann sehr gut - gerade auch mit Kindern - spazierengehen, vorausgesetzt, nicht zu viele Mitbürger kommen ebenfalls auf die Idee, dann wird es zuweilen auf den Hauptwegen recht voll. Der Gutshof selbst ist imposant und sehenswert.

    (Translated by Google) good roads, the parking lot has just been cleaned thoroughly. (Original) gute Wege, der Parkplatz wurde gerade gründlich vom Dreck befreit.

  • 4/5 Marcus K. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Anne V. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Great for walking, especially with young children. In the self-service cafe you can fortify yourself in between. The game reserve with wild boars and deer / stags and the huge playground are great for children. There is also a bird of prey station as well as lots of plants and, I think, bees too. (Original) Super zum Spazieren gehen, vor allem mit kleinen Kindern. Im Selbstbedienungs-Cafe kann man sich zwischendurch stärken. Das Wildgehege mit Wildschweinen und Rehen/Hirschen und der riesen Spielplatz sind für Kinder toll. Außerdem gibt es noch eine Greifvogelstation sowie viele Pflanzen und, ich glaube, auch Bienen zu entdecken.

  • 4/5 Hans B. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is bad how many people cannot read. It says several times that the wild boar may not be fed spaghetti and what do these illiterate people do? Exactly what is not allowed (Original) Es ist schlimm, wieviel Menschen nicht lesen können. Da steht mehrfach, dass die Wildschweine nicht Spaghetti gefüttert werden dürfen und was machen diese Analphabeten? Genau das, was nicht erlaubt ist
