Cristo Rey Ranch is beyond special. Aside from being home to over 300 animals, the ranch is run by nuns from the Congregation of Sister Servants of Christ the King. The ranch also provides a respite program for at-risk children in the community. Another core program brings animals to visit seniors in respite homes.

Visitors planning to come to Cristo Rey Ranch can take part in a group tour and play with the animals at the petting zoo. There’s also a garden, gift shop, and café to check out too.

Cristo Rey Ranch's address is N8114 County Road WW - Mount Calvary, WI 53057. There are about 1,000 residents in this small community.
