What to expect

Whether you are fond of big cats, marine mammals, exotic birds or clever little monkeys, the Beauval Zoo is simply the best excursion you can take! The No. 1 zoo in France, Beauval is located in the Loire Valley and extends over an immense domain where hundreds of different species can be admired most of the year. No fewer than 6,000 feathered, furry or scaly creatures share the spotlight and will delight the youngest children, their parents and all animal lovers in general.
