A beautiful large enclosure. I encountered 5 donkeys that are well housed. They are supplied with water. Please do not feed them! It is also described on several signs.

Always along the Spitter. The stream gurgles and babbles. Simply wonderful. If you're out early, don't underestimate the temperatures.
