The park acts as a buffer zone for the Müritz National Park, which is the largest national park in Germany not featuring a coastline.
It is situated within the UNESCO World Heritage region designated for its ancient beech forests.
The enclosure is specifically designed to allow observation of red deer, which are native to the surrounding Mecklenburg lake plateau.
Wildpark Boek is a wildlife enclosure located on the eastern edge of the Müritz National Park in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The park specializes in local European game species, including red deer, fallow deer, and wild boar, kept in large, near-natural enclosures. The site serves as an educational bridge between the managed park and the adjacent protected wilderness of the national park. Visitors walk along established forest paths to observe wildlife that is accustomed to human presence but remains in a natural habitat. The grounds include a Naturladen (nature shop) that features regional products and local handicrafts. The park's layout integrates directly into the landscape of the Lake Müritz region.
