JAGEN UND FISCHEN for families and children

For families

JAGEN UND FISCHEN turns a visit to the trade fair a real adventure for families. Get a taste of hunting and fishing with your little ones. The topics covered in our special events are communicated in an interactive and playful way to grab the attention of even the youngest visitors.

What’s on offer?

Hunting dogs in action
The hunting dog sector at JAGEN UND FISCHEN is a magnet for visitors par excellence! The Jagdgebrauchshundeverein Augsburg e.V. (Augsburg hunting dog association) will be presenting around 50 different hunting dog breeds and types, with daily shows of the dog conformation, gait and general appearance, and demonstrations of “terrier/burrowing dogs in action”.

Forest of the Future nature trail
The special event “Time Travel to the Forest of the Future” by the Office of Agriculture, Forestry & Food provides insights into the future of the forest. Here, you can explore interactively the changes caused by climate change. For children in particular, the "future tube" offers a playful look at how the forest is changing.

Angler casting area
The angling hall enables you to cast a rod yourself or simply watch the casters fly fishing from close up in the casting area. A great show where even the youngest ones can witness the action from up close.

Bird of prey show
Our tried and tested highlight for young and old: the bird of prey demonstration in the outdoor exhibition grounds! Be up close when the falcons and hawks circle overhead and come in to land. Children can also get the chance to hold the falcons and hawks.


You will find more exciting and free activities to do handicrafts, paint, try out and discover at our special events and at the stands of our exhibitors.
