Beautiful experience - I visited Cabarceno naturaleza with guided tour Civitatis. Everything is perfect. Guide Gabriela was efficient and very kind. Really good. Cabarceno is a paradise on earth. Beautiful landscapes and free animals in large green spaces without bars or barbed wire. An experience that enriches the soul of those who love nature and animals. Recommendation to everyone to go there. An experience that will remain in your heart

August 2024 - It never disappoints, we were two adults and two girls aged 4 and 2, I recommend entry through Cabárceno village, the cable car starts at 9.30, but there is less queue and you do the first thing. There were a lot of people because it's August, but we still saw the park wonderfully. There is a picnic area, restaurant and self-service, I recommend to go to lunch at 13, but there are lines that are crazy. Very careful animals and the park itself.

Beautiful park - Beautiful park, right in the mountain. It was warm, animals naturally move less. You know that in advance. Beautiful stays, the telecabin is highly recommended.

Good level park - We were a friend and I, who worked in another animal park and we loved the experience, facilities with lots of space, all green, especially of the herbivores you could see a natural behavior for being in the grazing prairies with the appearance that you do not even need to give them fodder to eat, very cool, I am sure that next year when we return north we will pass through there again, since we did not give time to see it whole because of the habit that the rest of parks we have gone to are seen in 2 or 3 hours. The only thing I would add is the use of environmental enrichments especially for carnivores, because they do not have the same encouragement to move as herbivores when grazing and would help them to be more entertained. But come on it is a very nice park and worth going back and forth 😁

Lovely. - We went 11 people to visit the park, if you go first thing in the morning you see it in a morning until 3”30 or so.The falconry show came and we got in the cable car.You can go out to eat out and go back in.

Genial - The park is immense, you can tour it by car and go down in the areas and viewpoints that interest you, the animals look great. It is great the circuit in the cable car that enters you with the general entrance. The reptilary is big. Inside there are free buses that take you from one area to another. If you go to Cantabria and you like animals you can not miss it.

A wonderful experience - Cabarceno is a must stop if you are in Cantabria and like animals, being able to see bears or elephants from the heights of the cable car is a unique experience. Even more so, see them up close. The facilities are very spacious and although it is true that in some cases it is difficult to find the animals considering that it is for their sake it is more than understandable. I don’t give it the 5 stars because the farm that seemed quite sloppy compared to the rest and the area of reprils and sea lions too small, even stands out with the park. Otherwise don't doubt it.

Visit to the park in July - Huge and particularly nice park where I was with family. It's very interesting to spend the day. It is well cared for, both the environment and the animals. I will raise 2 objections: 1. It is very poorly marked, you can easily get lost 2. The funicular takes you from end to end and does not allow you to see the animals up close, also, while we were inside it stopped 3 times and we stayed inside suspended.

A nice visit for children, with better things... - The visit is very nice to do with children. What I liked the most was seeing some animals in semi-freedom, I say some, because others are clearly in very very narrow spaces for their needs.... The funicular is great (it has air conditioning that is appreciated) and looks great in the distance, serves to orient you better when going later with the car. What I liked the least was having to drive around the park, I find it unproductive, when there could be several trains going around all day instead of 1000 cars polluting the park without need.... I liked it but I leave with a bittersweet taste for the subject of animal needs.

I wouldn't repeat. - EYE: it's a roll you have to see it by car and the distances between each type of animal is far away. It gets long. Animals is a shame, it's still a big zoo. The only ones in a large space are Bears and Elephants, the rest of the animals super-mega-slimmed down and sleepy spaces. This is not worth paying for. Very few shades for poor animals, no water except hippos. Of course, there are restaurants to eat all kinds of food. I don't know, I love animals, and frankly I wouldn't repeat.
