Bioparc Valencia - nature experience for families & children

Sometimes it's worth looking beyond your own horizon - or in this case, beyond the provincial border. The Bioparc Valencia may be a good hour and a half away from MarinaBaixa/Alta, but it is a destination that will not only delight animal lovers. The modern zoo is considered one of the most exciting in Europe - not least because of its unique concept, which immerses visitors in natural habitats instead of seeing animals behind bars.

Experience nature in the centre of the city
The Bioparc is located at the western end of Turia Park, on a former riverbed that is now a green lung for the city. Instead of traditional enclosures, the park favours so-called „zoo immersion“: invisible ditches, watercourses and rocks separate animals and people - creating the feeling of being in the middle of a savannah or tropical rainforest.
A special highlight - especially for children - is the lemur enclosure, in which the lively half-monkeys do not sit behind bars, but jump around freely among the visitors. If you're lucky, you can experience the animals up close - and see how curious and playful they are.
From the savannah to the jungle

The circular route leads through different continents:
- African savannah with giraffes, rhinos and zebras
- Equatorial forest with gorillas, chimpanzees and colourful birds
- Madagascar with lemurs and rare reptiles
- Wetlands with hippos and crocodiles
