How to get to Bioparc Valencia

Finding your way to Bioparc Zoo in Valencia is half the adventure—think of it as the opening act before the wild show begins! Nestled on the outskirts of the city, Bioparc is wonderfully accessible whether you’re a bus aficionado, a car enthusiast, or even an adventurous cyclist in search of fresh air and a scenic ride.

If you’re hopping on public transport, Valencia’s efficient bus and metro system has you covered. A quick ride into the city followed by a short bus journey can drop you right at the zoo’s doorstep—no expedition required! And for those who prefer the freedom of a car, worry not; ample parking awaits, so you can channel your inner explorer without the hassle of circling for a spot.

Pro tip: It is Spain, so most of the local visitors will be at the restaurant between 14:00-16:00.


Savannah Zone

Step into the Savannah zone, and you’re instantly swept into a sun-drenched realm that screams untamed Africa! Picture endless open plains where majestic lions lounge and giraffes nibble on treetops, all under a vast, brilliant sky. The Savannah at Bioparc is an open invitation to get lost in the simplicity of nature’s design. Here, the rhythmic rustle of tall grasses and the distant call of wildlife create a symphony of freedom that’s both relaxing and exhilarating. It’s the perfect spot to daydream about life on the wild side—perhaps even imagining yourself sharing a leisurely moment with a passing zebra!


Equatorial Africa Zone

Next up, wander into the lush embrace of Equatorial Africa—a zone that transports you straight into a vibrant tropical jungle. This area is a riot of colors, teeming with lively primates, stealthy big cats, and an orchestra of exotic bird calls. The atmosphere is thick with humidity and the raw, pulsating energy of the rainforest, making every step an adventure. As you navigate hidden trails and discover cascading waterfalls, you’ll be charmed by the playful antics of the animals and the sheer exuberance of this miniature equatorial paradise.


Madagascar Zone

Finally, prepare to be enchanted by the quirky allure of Madagascar—an island renowned for its own unique ecosystem. Unfortunately, this zone doesn’t capture all of the island’s famed eccentricity with its unique blend of landscapes and creatures. Nevertheless, you’ll be able to meet the most iconic inhabitants of Madagascar–Lemurs. At Bioparc Valencia Zoo it is an experience like no other. Think of lemurs performing their cheeky acrobatics and mesmerizing long-tail dances right around you. Yes, it is an open space exhibit letting you meet these charismatic creatures up close. Just be sure to close the door after you because if they run free, Lemurs will conquer Valencia in no time.
