La vallée sauvage, Animal park in Saint-Geniez, France.
La vallée sauvage is an animal park in the French Alps featuring marmots, deer, mouflons, and chamois in mountainous terrain. The approximately 14-hectare site uses the natural landscape to provide ample space for the animals.
The park was created to protect and display alpine wildlife native to the region. Its establishment represented an important step in safeguarding the area's native species.
The park displays alpine wildlife as it exists naturally in the French mountains. Visitors encounter the animals in landscapes that mirror their native habitats.
The park is accessible during daytime hours and visitors should wear sturdy shoes for the mountain trails. The grounds have pathways for various fitness levels, though some routes are steeper than others.
What sets this place apart is that animals roam in large enclosures designed to resemble natural mountain terrain. This allows them to display behaviors rarely seen in conventional zoos.
