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 spent the whole day there. Everything was so outstanding and diverse, impressive, and spacious. There were plenty of places to rest, to eat—it was simply wonderful from start to finish. It was worth the money. The cinema is also a must-see. Thumbs up!

An absolutely wonderful experience! The Bioparc + Oceanographic combo was perfectly organized and very easy to use. The Bioparc makes you feel like you're in the middle of nature, the animals are well cared for, and the Oceanographic is impressive, especially the shark tunnel and the dolphinarium. A memorable day, ideal for both adults and children. I highly recommend it!

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

I visited Bioparc Valencia and I can say it was a very enjoyable experience. The park is well organized and impresses from the moment you enter with how spacious it is. Not only are the walking paths wide and easy to navigate, but the animals also have large habitats, which makes a big difference compared to many other zoos. What I appreciated the most is how natural everything feels. The enclosures are designed to resemble the animals’ real environments, with minimal visible barriers, so it almost feels like you are walking through their habitat rather than looking at them in cages. The animals seem more relaxed and active, which makes the visit more engaging and authentic. The variety of species is also very good, and the layout allows you to explore everything at a comfortable pace without feeling rushed. In addition, the park is clean, well maintained, and equipped with modern facilities. Overall, I would definitely recommend visiting. It’s a great place to spend a few hours, whether you’re going alone, with friends, or with family, and at the same time learn more about wildlife and conservation.

I visited the Oceanogràfic in Valencia, and I have to say it was a truly wonderful experience. The place is huge and very well organized, and you can tell right from the entrance how well-maintained it is. I was particularly impressed by the variety of exhibits: it almost feels like taking a journey through the world’s different seas.
