The
safari park at Haute Touche is reputed to have the world’s
most beautiful collection of wild deer which freely roam the
forest with many other species. Within the reserve there are
in fact 75 species of mammals and 31 species of bird. There
is the option of discovering all the 1000 animals of either
by car, bicycle or by foot, or any combination of
these.
The vast size of the park, allows the
animals to be presented in roomy enclosures (2 to 3
hectares). Their environment means that they can thrive in
what to them is near natural conditions. You will be
captivated by the site of African animals of the
Savannah,
Hyenas, Leopards, Antelopes and Giraffes, within ‘the
park of the world’. Here you will find animals of the five
continents.
There is a very good 'monkey
island' that will amuse the kids, young and old! The kids will love watching the many species of monkeys scamper
across their walkways from their home to their island while only a
few feet away.
The
park will provide a stress free day out for all the
family and taking a picnic will add to the experience.
