The recreational offerings at the Saupark in Springe are diverse: To make use of the animal and leisure park's offerings over time, I recommend an early arrival (full-day excursion) and, on the other hand, a shortcut starting the hike directly at the hunting lodge. Additionally, it is useful to check, for example, the falconry demonstration times for planning the day.
