An unforgettable discovery...
In the heart of the Basse-Terre Massif, Parc des Mamelles devotes over 2 hectares of tropical forest to the conservation of rare or endangered animal species.
Located on the Route de la Traversée, on the edge of the Parc National de la Guadeloupe, this park is distinguished by its tranquility and perfectly natural setting.
A veritable modern-day Noah's Ark, it is home to around 85 species of animals from the Caribbean and French Guiana, including mammals, birds, reptiles and arthropods - over 450 individuals in all.
All are surrounded by lush greenery and over a thousand species of plants. An ideal temperature and optimum humidity level provide them with a most pleasant living environment.
Discover the canopy
Don't forget to take a walk in the treetops on footbridges suspended 20 metres high... You'll discover species of trees, flowers and plants that are usually inaccessible, such as orchids and wild pineapples...
By visiting the zoo, each visitor also becomes an active participant in wildlife protection.Â
Your children will have the chance to discover the Kaz' Ã Tarzan, several footbridges, slides, secret passages... a cabin just for them where parents often have trouble convincing their children to go out... but the promise of seeing jaguars always wins out!
