Here we say you have "animals at your fingertips". Some you can feed, some you can pet, some you can watch...
If it is within our possibilities, we will be happy to talk to you and talk about our animals :-).
We also keep several protected and rare or critically endangered species. We can also boast of our own offspring.
And if any of our animals look familiar or familiar to you, that's possible too. We have several movie "stars" here.
When you are alone in the zoo after closing time, sit on a bench, for example in front of the llama enclosure, and watch them. Or watch the porcupines dig their burrows...
For children we have several play elements in the area, during the day they can also go to the enclosure to our small animals (rabbits, guinea pigs).
Calm, relaxed and sensible campers will be happy to welcome us with their motorhome. A place for camping is ready. It is a meadow at the top of the zoo in the quiet zone.
Since you will be camping in a paid and closed part of our grounds outside of zoo hours, there are a few rules to keep in mind.
Site for camping without camping.
A place is prepared for you in the upper part of the zoo where you will be alone and will not be disturbed by anyone. Visitors do not come there, so you will have peace and quiet. Your closest neighbours will be our horses and domestic buffaloes.
However, we are a zoo, so now and then, for example, our equipment will pass by to collect a bale of straw, etc. Admission to the zoo is included for the duration of your non-camping stay with us.
Access to the property.
Almost as far as you can drive on the asphalt. You enter the zoo from the back and here we allow you to pass through the horse pasture (the road is rutted, up a slight hill - see photo in gallery). We will open the entrance and exit for you. For this reason it is always necessary to make an appointment in advance to arrange arrival and then departure. As the zoo has opening hours for the public, you may have to wait a while before we can clear. So we prefer arrival/departure before or after closing hours. Everything is always by appointment :-), but please be understanding. We only have one hand.
Stay with us.
A few adult rules need to be respected :-).
Do not enter the pens with the animals. Don't pet the buffalo or cuddle the cougar... not a good idea.
Always keep puppies on a leash in the zoo and keep them well away from the enclosures.
You can feed the animals where it is allowed (information is on the enclosure), but only with our kibble. You can bring dry kibble to us, but do not feed it - always hand it to the keepers. Each animal has its own rations.
Zoo transport
When the zoo is open, the lower section adjacent to the farm closes. If you follow the rules, you can move around the upper part of the zoo without restrictions. You will be alone :-).
Arrival is possible from 10:00 or 17:00. It is ideal to make arrangements with us in advance - we drive through the public part of the Zoopark so that we do not complicate each other's lives :-).
100% reservations confirmed recently. The average response time is 10 minutes.
toilet
- During the zoo's opening hours, you can use the toilet on the farm for visitors. This area closes after opening hours.
drinking water
- Drinking water can be obtained at our farm in a canister. Between the paddocks only drinking water is available.
campfire ring
Wifi
Greywater (shower, washing)
- Water can be drained underneath - but continuously to maintain soaking.
Chemical toilet
- We will show the spout on site. It is located on the farm in the lower part of the complex. The ideal time for disposal is before the zoo opens or after the zoo closes to the public. So you don't have to carry it between visitors :-), like a stewardesses suitcase.
Access to the property may be difficult in rainy weather
An asphalt road leads almost to the back of the zoo property. The last 200 metres is a paved, gravel road. To the property itself you go through the horse paddock. The road is regularly ridden, up a slight hill. Of course, as on other similar paths, everything depends on the weather.
cycling
Chyňava is located in front of the Křivoklátsko Protected Landscape Area. There are many cycling routes through this region. One of the routes of the Křivoklástý circuit leads directly through Chyňava. You can go to Křivoklát, Dědkův Mlýn, Beroun, Klíčava,...
activities for kids
We have several play elements for children in the zoo. Barefoot trail, slide, trampoline ...
hiking
There are several marked paths around us. The Křivoklástko Protected Landscape Area is within easy reach.
horses
Horse riding can be arranged in the next village. By prior arrangement and ordering in advance.
Other activities
We are also happy to offer you activities directly at our zoo. Lamatreking, goat trekking, you can become a keeper for a day. These activities must be booked in advance. Sometimes several weeks in advance. Arrangements must be made in advance.
All our rules are based on the reason "a normal person wouldn't do this".
You're in a zoo, with animals, think about that first.
Please keep things tidy, please take your rubbish away - we have containers for sorted waste.
Do not feed animals where it is not allowed and what it is not allowed with.
Keep an eye on your dogs.
For the time being we will not offer you the possibility to make a fire for safety reasons (we will build a fireplace for you in time).
Do not spill anything in the grass - grass is used as animal food.
If traffic permits and you are not followed by another reservation, you may stay until the evening. Just make arrangements.
Our assistance is always needed to arrive and leave, sometimes you may need to wait a while before we clear the animals, the ticket office - the traffic. Thank you for your understanding.
Fire lighting, only in the designated area.
Arrival possible from 10:00 or 17:00. It is ideal to make arrangements with us in advance - we drive through the public part of the Zoopark so that we do not complicate each other's lives :-).

More info
The place to stand was in a quiet place, just in the countryside. We liked it very much and it met our expectations. My daughter was thrilled, she would have loved to stay. I would definitely recommend it to everyone, the kids will love it.
If you are looking for peace and quiet, if you want to recharge your batteries after a full week of work, you are right here. A perfect place where you are surrounded by absolutely amazing animals.
A beautiful place for nature and animal lovers. For children's activities, fireplace on site. Drinking water available, the only drawback - no electricity. We did not mind. Guys, beer to go. Refreshments here on the farm. Divine peace.
Amazing place for the overnight stay among lovely and friendly animals. We particularly enjoyed late evening interactions with the porcupines which as it turns out are very approachable. We fell in love with them! Other animals are also friendly: the goats, sheep, alpacas, bunnies, even emus. The owners are very helpful and responsive. The only downside I can think of is that you can enter or leave the space with the owner, and ideally either before 10 or after 5.
Excellent quiet place for families with children, I recommend bringing a shelter or awning to find at least a little shade on hot days
I will stay in: (What should I select in my case?)

We visited the property ourselves and were absolutely charmed by it. It is a small zoo, but all the more "cosy". The animals are really at your fingertips. You get the feeling of such a family atmosphere. The no-camping area is all the way at the back in a slight hill, where you have peace and quiet.The way to the place is through the horse paddock and past the camels. Which is an experience in itself. With a camel running beside you and looking you in the eye. Or there's a herd around you. The "safari" feeling doesn't go away. The road is rutted with traffic. Unless you arrive in the monsoon season, you'll get to the place without any problems. All you need to do is make arrangements in advance to arrive - the zoo is being built by enthusiasts and there are no octopuses to be everywhere at once. It's only after closing time that it's the real deal. For example, go watch the porcupines in the evening when they come alive and watch them burrow. In the evening, be sure to go watch the camels move into their night quarters from the outdoor enclosure.
