Aran Park, Wildlife park in Bossòst, Spain
Aran Park is a wildlife facility in Bossòst that spreads across mountain terrain and displays various animal species including bears, lynxes, wolves, and marmots in large naturalistic enclosures. The site uses the surrounding landscape to give animals space to roam while offering visitors viewing areas throughout the grounds.
The facility was established to create a dedicated wildlife conservation center in the Val d'Aran region of the Pyrenees. This represented an important effort to protect the area's mountain fauna for future generations.
The park features animals that have inhabited the Pyrenees for centuries, helping visitors understand how mountain communities have coexisted with local wildlife. The enclosures allow you to watch how these animals naturally behave and interact with their surroundings.
The park operates from April through October with extended hours during the summer months of July and August. Guided tours and an on-site restaurant help visitors make the most of their time there.
The park displays wolves in specially designed habitats where visitors can observe their social interactions through designated viewing areas. This perspective reveals the complex dynamics between the animals and their ability to live together in groups.
