    • Located in the heart of the mountains, the Pyrenees Animal Park is home to around 100 different species and nearly 500 animals spread over 14 hectares of nature.

      The park offers optimal living conditions for the emblematic species of the Pyrenees (brown bears, wolves, marmots, ibex, etc.), but also for species from completely different horizons (red panda, lemurs, gibbons, etc.).

      Moreover, the Pyrenees Animal Park is now one of the largest semi-wild animal parks in Europe. This conservation and protection site works to safeguard endangered species and welcomes numerous births and new species each year. This 2023 season, you can come and meet bat-eared bats, bush dogs, and even splendidly colorful birds in the heart of the immersive aviaries.

      Possibility of sleeping on site in the three ecolodges (bear, black wolf, gray wolf, etc.) or living the keeper experience for a day close to the animals.

    A wonderful discovery! The Ayzac Wildlife Park is a true haven of nature. The animals are well cared for, the enclosures are clean and well-designed, and you can feel a genuine respect for animal welfare. The walk is pleasant, accessible to all, and makes for a great time with family or friends. The setting is magnificent, peaceful, and offers a complete change of scenery. Special mention goes to the warm and passionate welcome, which makes the visit even more enjoyable. An ideal outing in the region, not to be missed!

    Magnificent zoo! Lots of animals you don't usually see (chamois, ibex, etc.) A great tour, almost 2 hours, taking photos and enjoying the experience. Don't wear heels, the zoo is quite a walk!

  • "Awesome Day Out"

    5 / 5 Reviews posted by NorthStar42043983533 (Cambridge, United Kingdom) on 12/09/2024

    Awesome day out. Animals looked healthy, some of the areas smaller than would expect and some of the English translations are a bit off but a really fun day out.
