Come visit our petting Zoo and feed our farm animals. We provide food with every entry for you to hand feed the animals and you can bottle feed our pet lambs and take photos with them!
Our family has farmed this land since 1928 and we love sharing our home with visitors from all over the world.
If you're looking for a hands-on animal experience then come and say hello to our farmyard favorites. Pet and feed our Merino Sheep, Kune Kune Pigs, Lambs, Alpacas, Calf and rabbits. Learn their names and personalities and let our friendly staff teach you about the habits of each animal and explain how we care for them.
Lake Tekapo Petting Zoo is located on the original grounds of the historic Mt John Homestead and Farm Yard, a 5-10 minute walk from the village center.
The admission price includes animal feed and additional feed can be purchased for $10 per bag. Bottle feeding is done at 9.00am, 2.00pm, & 7.00pm daily. Please let a staff member know if you would like to join in.
To ensure that our petting zoo experience is fun and safe for our guests and animals please read the following:
Active Supervision: Children must be supervised by an adult at all times whilst interacting with our animals.
Don't Run: Please don't run near to, or chase our animals.

Such a wonderful experience! Suzie was our tour guide. She is so sweet and friendly. It is no doubt that all farm animals have been looked after so well as they showed us the excitement when they saw us. Thank you for spending time with us, Suzie, sheeps, pigs Gin and Tonic, baby calf Islay and Alpacas. We will definitely visit you all again!

Lake Tekapo Petting Zoo
園區內容不大,僅收養了一些牛羊與雞鴨,然而和這些動物互動的過程相當不錯,工作人員也預示了羊駝吐口水的習慣。雖然讓我接下來都小心翼翼的餵食動物,幸虧到最後羊駝都友善的對待了我們,提供的飼料量對我們與動物來說都恰到好處。 位置就在湖邊,距離Lake Tekapo車程約2分鐘,該單位同時有星空導覽活動。
