Did you know?

Bioparc Valencia’s amazing architecture and innovative design, earned it prestigious design awards such as the Europa Nostra Award in 2009.

Bioparc Valencia is strongly committed to conservation, recycling over 95% of its water and generating energy through solar panels. Many species in the zoo are part of European conservation breeding programs.

Owned by the City Council of Valencia and managed by Rainforest, Bioparc Valencia opened its doors in 2008, with most animals relocated from the old city's zoo, which closed the same year.

Bioparc Valencia offers engaging educational programs like Zoo School, where students learn about animals, conservation, and biodiversity in interactive ways. It is Bioparc Valencia’s mission to educate and raise awareness about environmental care and respect.

On May 10, 2012, primatologist Jane Goodall visited Bioparc Valencia, where she observed elephants bathing in the lake, chimpanzees exhibiting familial behaviors, and more. Impressed by the park's immersive experience, she awarded it the "highest rating" during a press conference. Subsequently, she delivered a conference titled "Reasons for Hope" in the park's amphitheater.

Why visit Bioparc Valencia?

Experience authentic African wildlife

Bioparc Valencia is known for its commitment to recreating natural African habitats. Encounter over 4,000 animals, from giraffes and crocodiles to lemurs and jackals, all living in carefully recreated landscapes of Savannah, Madagascar, and Equatorial Africa zones, to enable the animals to live in their natural environment. 

Family-friendly amenities

Enjoy a day of exploration with the whole family, taking breaks at the on-site restaurants such as the Baobab Paleao Trees Restaurant and the Pangea Cafe. Children can enjoy the Ndoki playground. Convenient facilities like baby changing stations, children’s playgrounds and microwaves to heat up food, are designed to create a comfortable experience for visitors of all ages.

Educational presentations

Attend the engaging Cycle of Life presentations, where you can learn about the behaviors and interactions of various species. From ospreys hunting for fish to the symbiotic relationship between jackals and vultures, these presentations offer insights into African wildlife and conservation of all animal species.

Enjoy animals in natural environments

At Bioparc, animals enjoy spacious environments that mimic their natural habitats. It's a unique experience to witness giraffes galloping freely, a rare sight in inner-city zoos. One of the most remarkable features is the Kitum Cave system, replicating natural cave environments. Bioparc's dedication to recreating the beauty of the natural world is evident throughout, making it a perfect destination for wildlife enthusiasts.

Immersive Zoo Experience

Unlike conventional zoos, Bioparc Valencia practices Zooimmersion. Zooimmersion is where you can view animals in their natural habitats. There are no glass barriers or railings separating the animals and the visitors but instead there are natural formations such as rocks and rivers. Developed in 1975 by David Hancocks at Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo, this approach creates a better experience for both visitors and animals.

We discovered this place, when we were in Valencia, and it was an unforgettable experience. We saw a lot of animals, that even people, that are not animal fans will enjoy this experience, because you are totally immersed into the wild and animals. We highly recommend this place, for anyone.

So beautiful!! Too bad that since we went at 2 p.m., many of the animals were sleeping... maybe they were taking a nap too 😜

On Easter Monday, the schedules weren't quite on time. Probably because it was a holiday. On a regular weekday, everything ran according to the announced times. It's always fun to explore a city on a hop-on hop-off bus

Valencia definitely impressed (and yet to see the Mestalla). But what a city of sights🥰 Can recommend the bus tour around the city and then jumping off at the Mediterranean seaside for some lunch and a stroll on the boardwalk. Then a stroll home past the Torres dels Serrans such a fantastic public space with football pitches and other sporting activities. We loved it. A little chilly with the breeze, but the sun did warm us. #kerrys60th2026
