A visit to the Nerja donkey sanctuary should be
on the list of things to do and is a great place to keep the kids
amused for anyone staying in the Nerja
area. It is an ideal place to while away an hour or so and if you
visit on a Saturday morning then children get the chance to
help-out with the daily chores for the animals (supervised of
course).
Now in its second year the Nerja donkey sanctuary
is run by a team of unpaid volunteers and during that time
it has helped to provided shelter and a safe home for many
donkeys, horses and mules as well as other abandoned animals such
as dogs.
The Nerja Donkey Sanctuary differs from other
animal charities in that they operate a free range animal welfare
policy which means you can mix, play and groom their residents -
just the animals!, take dogs for walks, and also bring along
apples, carrots, lettuce, pears, bread and even old stale rolls
to feed them yourself.
THEY ARE OPEN 365 DAYS A YEAR and for
visitors from 10 - 2 though subject to rescues, they are usually
open until 6 pm
Please call 0034 678 595 650 or 0034 618 46 7575
to check if we are open that afternoon
