Visiting Monkey Valley for an Immersion in the Animal Kingdom
A Park Dedicated to Primate Freedom
Monkey Valley, located in Romagne within the Vienne department, is a one-of-a-kind wildlife park entirely dedicated to primates. Spanning over 22 hectares of forest, you will encounter more than 450 monkeys representing 34 different species.
What sets this park apart is the complete absence of barriers between visitors and the animals. The monkeys roam freely across natural enclosures, allowing for exceptional interaction and total immersion in their environment.
An Educational and Entertaining Experience
Monkey Valley is an ideal destination for families, offering an experience that is both entertaining and educational. Along the walking paths, informative signage and activities help you better understand the behaviors and social structures of primates.
The feeding sessions, which take place several times a day, offer a prime opportunity to observe the monkeys up close and learn more about their diet and social dynamics. These sessions are led by dedicated zookeepers who are ready to answer all your questions.
A Commitment to Conserving Endangered Species
By visiting Monkey Valley, you also contribute to an important conservation initiative. The park participates in several European captive breeding programs for threatened species. Thanks to these efforts, numerous births occur each year, helping protect these endangered primates. Monkey Valley stands out as a space for discovery, relaxation, and active commitment to biodiversity preservation.

Like Bruno says, don't think that only monkey lovers will enjoy this wildlife park. It is truly a place where kids and adults have a great time together, watching animals whose behavior sometimes reminds you of their human cousins :)
