Leisure with a cause: enjoy learning to respect nature

The BIOPARCs represent in Spain the new paradigm of animal parks of the 21st century whose objectives are awareness, conservation and maximum animal well-being. Located in the interior of three cities that are outstanding tourist destinations, they offer the opportunity to enjoy a unique experience for the whole family.

They are born with the purpose of change people's attitude to understand the need to live in harmony with the planet. The objective of this 'leisure with a cause' is to awaken emotion when contemplating some of the most beautiful and threatened habitats of untamed nature, while at the same time motivating a change of attitude in society towards nature conservation to protect the environment and preserve endangered species.
