Nestled on the lush hillside of a ravine in La Cuesta, Maroparque transcends the concept of a typical zoo. This exotic animal rescue and rehabilitation center operates under the Maroparque Foundation, devoted to caring for species that have been abandoned, mistreated, or confiscated. Every visit directly supports the welfare of these residents, transforming your experience into something genuinely meaningful.

The tour allows you to step inside walk-through aviaries where birds fly freely around you, and meet primates, reptiles, and exotic mammals in enclosures designed with respect and expertise. The lush vegetation surrounding each habitat creates a natural setting where every photograph captures not just animals, but stories of second chances.

The dedicated care team stands out for their visible passion and knowledge, offering insights into each species and their recovery journey. Interactive areas allow you, under supervision, to feed certain animals, creating memorable connections. The visit concludes at a restaurant integrated into the green surroundings, perfect for reflecting on conservation's importance while enjoying ravine views.
