Zoo Préhistorique de Marzal: la Forêt des Dinos, Prehistoric zoo and dinosaur park in Saint-Remèze, France.
Zoo Préhistorique de Marzal is an outdoor park with life-sized dinosaur replicas arranged along an 800 meter forest path. The site combines this walkway with an adjacent cave system, with the models created through scientific collaboration.
The Aven Marzal cave system was shaped by water over millions of years and reveals the geological history of the region. The modern dinosaur park was added later to introduce visitors to this ancient world.
The name comes from the nearby Aven Marzal cave system and reflects the site's focus on natural history education for families. The dinosaur models are integrated into the forest setting, allowing children to explore prehistory through outdoor play and discovery.
The forest path is easy to walk and accessible for families with children, with enough space to stop and view each figure comfortably. Plan at least two hours to experience the complete walk with the interactive features.
The dinosaur figures are motorized and produce authentic sounds, bringing an animated quality to the walk. This sound effect makes the forest come alive momentarily as visitors pass by.
