A workshop that combines closeness, mindfulness, and donkey charm
On Saturday, October 17, 2026, The Language of Donkeys in Pähl at Lake Ammer opens a special access to the world of donkeys. The one-day workshop is aimed at adults and teenagers aged 13 and above and combines expertise in natural communication with practical exercises directly with the animals. According to the event page, the course covers the basics of donkey language, the Seven Games according to Parelli, and concludes with a small donkey hike.

Subtle communication instead of loud gestures
Those who know donkeys only as leisurely companions will experience a different perspective here: The animals react sensitively to clear body language, calm presence, and consistent signals. This is precisely what the workshop focuses on. In small groups, participants practice, observe, and work directly with the donkeys. This creates a true event experience between knowledge, movement, and animal interaction.

Practice on the farm grounds
Particularly appealing is the mix of theory and direct experience. For lunch, participants remain on the farm grounds, and afterward, they will go on a small donkey hike. The pre-reporting on the event page also makes it clear: the given address is not the final address of the seminar location, and detailed directions will follow shortly before the date.

Location with a clear agricultural influence
The course takes place in Pähl, at the address Am Gasteig 4. There is the Asinella donkey farm or Asinella organic farming located. This aligns with the character of the workshop: nature-oriented, practical, and with a direct connection to donkey husbandry and donkey work.
