Parc Alpha Theme Park, Saint-Martin Vesubie

Imprint
Updated

In 1992, wolves naturally returned to France. It all happened not far from here, in the Mercantour National Park. This park has been created to tell the story of man and the wolf and allow visitors to see wolf packs up close.

In 10 hectares of natural beauty, this is a great and informative day out. The park is divided into 2 main areas. One tells the story of the relationship between farmers and wolves through audiovisual shows, while the other allows you to see the wolves.

There is a gift shop in the park and a snack bar.

Open in July & August from 10:00 to 18:00, and in May, June and September from 10:00 to 17:00. Open during some weekends the rest of the year.
