Lovely park to visit to see animals in their habitat. Half a day visit.

The Parc Animalier de Merlet is not a zoo. It's a reserve for deer, chamois, bouquetins, marmots, llamas and more. Come see the animals in their natural habitat.

Animal park for local wildlife with exceptional views! Don’t forget to reserve before you go!

See Alpine wildlife at close range in this wildlife park a short drive from Les Houches. Good choice for families - note that the marmots are most active early morning and late afternoon. You'll also have great views of the Mont Blanc Range.

Paid for park, with all the local wildlife easy to see. The Marmozets are our favourite. Great place to stroll around with families. Beautiful views across the valley to Mont Blanc. If you don't want a long walk, keep driving as there is nearly always a space at the top! (Summer only)
