About us

A visit to Rancho Ozolmājas is a pleasant and heart-warming experience not only for children, but also for adults. Approximate duration of stay 1,5 hours. 8 ha of land are reserved for the residents of the ranch.

Here you will meet – camels, African wild Watusi cows with giant horns, little dwarf Zebo cows, Highland goths and domestic Yaks. You’ll be delighted by the gorgeous long-haired Irish Tinker horses, Shetland ponies and donkeys of all breeds – mini donkeys, classic greys, speckled and shaggy French Poitou donkeys and, with a powerful tenor, the all-white albino donkey Ringo with light blue eyes. Different breeds of goats – Valais black-necked mountain goats, Girgenten goats with corkscrew horns from the Sicilian region, dwarf goats. Sheep breeds – the huge Swiss mountain sheep – the Valais Black-necked, the Hungarian Rack, the German Swamp Sheep – the Heidschnücke, the four-horned Jacobs, the Romanov, the Suffolk, the Dorper and the tiny mini-French Quessant dwarf sheep. Peruvian alpacas, kangaroos, maras, Vietnamese dwarf pigs and white spiny pigs. African ostriches, Australia’s largest bird Emu and South America’s largest bird Nanda, gorgeous bright blue-green peacocks and a pair of royal white peacocks, ornamental pigeons and colourful pheasants, black swans, as well as domestic birds – turkeys, geese, ducks and chickens. And of course rabbits, lots of rabbits, who have their own ranch where you can go inside to cuddle, pet and feed the little fluffies. Welcome!
