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.

Even though I'm not a big fan of zoos, Bio Parc really impressed me. The animals are right at your fingertips, and the layout is very clear. I love places where I know where to go and don’t have to wonder if I’ve seen everything yet. The food at the restaurant was delicious. I couldn’t buy a ticket on the Bio Parc website because it wasn’t working, but everything went smoothly and quickly on Headout. I recommend it to everyone.

I am person with dissability and i was surprised how oceanographic is user friendly. Experience was amazing and my 6 years old son just loved it. We came at 10.30 and left at 6pm. It was worth every penny

Visiting the Oceanographic was a simply spectacular experience. I especially loved going through the underwater tunnels, and seeing the sharks, rays, turtles and fish swim right over me.

It was a wonderful experience. The audio tour is quite accurate and gives you a good overview of the city. We did the entire tour on the first day and then decided what we wanted to explore in more detail on day 2. That was a great solution.

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

Both parks are well worth the money. The care and maintenance they require is meticulous. The experience was wonderful and engaging, allowing us to observe animal species from different parts of the world all in one place. There wasn’t much of a line. However, I recommend going to the Bio Park early in the afternoon because, even though it closes at 7 p.m., the gift shop inside had already closed by 6 p.m. We weren’t able to see all the animals we’d hoped to see, partly because some weren’t there (like the leopard), but it was still wonderful! It’s an experience worth having, especially with kids—I highly recommend it!
