The static wolf encounter at Predator Park offers a calm and focused way to connect with wolves. It’s a more accessible animal experience for those who prefer a less physically demanding, yet unforgettably moving wolf experience.
An accessible animal experience
Set within a secure, peaceful sanctuary in the heart of the Lake District National Park, this meet and greet animal experience allows visitors to spend meaningful time with the wolf pack without the need for walking. It is well-suited for animal lovers who may have mobility considerations or simply want a more relaxed wildlife encounter.
Guided by expert wild animal handlers, you will learn about wolf evolution, behaviour, communication and conservation. This is a chance to observe the wolves up close, see their unique personalities, and witness how they interact as a social family group.
During your wolf encounter, you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, take photographs, and listen as the wolves are encouraged to howl – a sound that many find deeply moving.
At Predator Park, we believe everyone should have the chance for a meaningful connection with nature. This experience is more controlled but is still about inclusion, understanding and creating unforgettable memories in a calm, respectful environment.
Whether you come for curiosity, connection or simply to be close to the wild, you will leave with a new perspective.
