A rather big animal park and very cheap too! Perfect for a day out with kids that you want to keep…read moreentertained and tire out so they'll sleep soundly and early on the weekend :) The animals tend to be in more open cages here then a regular zoo and with the exception of the two brown bear in a rather sad small enclosure non of the animals here are dangerous. Theres bike tracks so you can cycle you way around from animal to animal area but on the weekends this can be tricky with all the families , prams and children you have to dodge. The Playground is one of the better ones I've seen in Germany for kids and the Meerkats are alone worth visiting the Munenhof to see! Some of the animals I saw include -Camels -Pigs -Goats -Ox -Cows -Horses -Bison -Bunnies -Monkeys -Australian birds -Meerkats -Turtles The Aquarium is a bit lame-I also think it's odd that they allow people to bring their dogs in here as in my opinion it's upsetting for the animals The Monkey enclosure is a bit of a worry also as it had a electric fence only inches behind the main fence that more then a few little kids could help but touch and were given quite a nasty shock and left screaming in tears for trying to touch the cute little monkeys- clearly the kids aren't as clever as the monkys who know not to touch it :) Not a bad day out if you have kids- if you don't visit on a weekend and bring your bike for a less boring veiwing.

A beautiful park with a fairly large lake in the middle. There is also a running track with a…read morefootball pitch and a Japanese garden. The lake was once a quarry, so it is quite deep (82 feet) and the drop-off from the shore can be sudden and steep, so small children need close supervision. The west end of the lake is more friendly to smaller kids, with a large, shallower area. Otherwise, one can just jump in anywhere they like. Being Germany, there are no life guards or restrictions. People even dive and jump off the pontoon bridge. Also, being Germany, there is nudity. There is no official FKK site, but there is a small area on the north shore here that has become an unofficial FKK area. It is visible from the walking path that circles the lake and some people hang out in the area with bathing suits on, which would not be tolerated at an official FKK site. Still, plenty of people of all ages (including families) were comfortable enough to go au naturel when I was there, so when in Rome (or Freiburg)... If you're looking for a more private and/or egalitarian FKK experience, seek out a nearby lake with a sanctioned site. There is a Biergarten on site at the west end of the lake. The curry wurst is just ketchup with curry powder sprinkled on it but the prices are reasonable. There is a tower to explore and a stage right on the water where a traditional oom-pah band was playing for a bit. The southeast end of the lake is easily accessible by the #1 Tram and of course the entire park is accessible by bike. I don't know about car parking in the area.

4 Stars for a great spa facility with plenty of activities for families, but thankfully also an…read moreadults section for me to get away from happy children (I'm a monster). As a caveat, I've not been to a facility like this before so my experience is of a first timer. I was staying in the attached hotel and excited to get my relaxation on and disconnect from everything. When you stay in the hotel you are granted access to Keidel through an underground tunnel (which means you get to walk over in your robe). There is a section of the facility that is for families and includes a large indoor/outdoor pool with jets and lots of lounge seating. I spent about 30 seconds there before high-tailing it to the sauna section (again, not a fan of kids). The sauna section is also a no-clothing section. As an American with American sensitivities to nudity (eek! Nipples are scary!), I was apprehensive (see: terrified). We entered the locker room where there are places to change into your robe. They also had a set of gender-specific showers, though they don't have any doors, just dividers. Queue immediate hives and the onset of hyperventilation. You then walk into the common area that has a few separate saunas, a steam room (beautifully tiled), a cold ice plunge, some seats with foot baths, several open shower heads for quick co-ed rinses between sauna sessions, and the entrance to a pool that extends outside. Once outside you'll see there are additional saunas, a natural lake (for more cold plunges), and a quiet sitting area to lounge. We happened to visit when there was a light snowfall outside and it was actually quite magical to be floating in a heated pool while snow drifted down around us. What struck me the most though was how quickly I got used to the nudity. Unlike nude beaches back home, folks weren't gawking or staring at one another (I won't mention the other unpleasant activities I've seen at American nude beaches, but suffice to say our prude culture leads to some sickos). No, here groups of girlfriends were laughing and chatting while using the communal showers and walking around in their birthday suits. Yes, I still kept a robe on anytime I wasn't in a sauna or skinny dipping in the pool, but there was no judgement whatsoever and who knows, maybe next time I'll forgo the robe altogether. All in all, we spent several hours decompressing and doing our sauna routine and left feeling totally relaxed and a heck of a lot less bashful. The facility did feel a bit more therapeutic and not super luxurious (like a spa back home) but I'm a fan and we've already planned our trip back 2 years after our first visit.
