Libearty Bear Sanctuary

Europe's largest brown bear sanctuary — 100+ bears rescued from circuses and roadside cages.

About

Libearty is not a zoo. It is a 70-hectare forest where bears rescued from years of confinement — circuses, restaurant cages, lonely backyard tethers — live out the rest of their lives. Guided tours are at fixed times only, with one ranger and small groups. The rangers know each bear by name and history; the stories alone are worth the trip.
