Yes, the stud farm can be visited in a wheelchair. However, there are slight inclines and slopes, so we recommend a visit with a companion.

• There is a disabled parking space at the top of the hill, to the left of the entrance to the inner stud farm area (turnstile), opposite the granary (museum).
• Further wheelchair-accessible parking spaces are located in the visitor car park at the foot of Castle Hill.
• Disabled toilets are available at Piber Castle, in the climbing park ticket shop and on the grounds of the Piber Arena.

Note: Site plan for disabled access

The stud farm is disability-accessible, which means that it’s possible to visit with a stroller.
There is also a changing table in the ladies' toilet in Piber Castle.

Four-legged friends are welcome at the stud farm, whether it’s on an independent visit or on a guided tour!
However, please note:

• In the inner area of the stud farm, dogs must always be kept on a short lead.
• Dogs are not permitted at events held on stud grounds (e. g. the Spring Celebration) or on alpine pasture tours!
