Kinderboerderij Stadspark

Playing tag among goats and chickens

In the middle of the Stadspark, hidden between trees and bushes, lies one of the nicest places in Groningen. At Kinderboerderij Stadspark, the animals roam freely all over the grounds. When you're done watching animals, play in the playground opposite. And then, of course, go back and say hello to the funny goat.

Animals running loose

They are proud of it at Kinderboerderij Stadspark. Whereas in other petting zoos animals are often in cages, here they just walk around freely. At least, as far as it is good for the animals themselves. The donkeys, for instance, have their own field. But don't be alarmed if a goat snaps at your shoelaces while you are drumming a song on the musical instrument made of metal pipes. Or if a peacock comes and sits cosily next to you on the tractor. Kinderboerderij Stadspark is open every day and entry is free.
