Parco Gallorose

About

Parco Gallorose, located in the picturesque town of Cecina, is a unique blend of wildlife, culture, and nature education. Stretching over 45,000 square metres, the park hosts more than 130 animal species sourced from five continents, including exotic mammals, birds, reptiles, and domestic breeds. Its diverse animal collection is complemented by a rich botanical garden, a small museum showcasing historical themes, and a 'farm of the world' section that introduces visitors to traditional livestock breeds. The park offers a fully immersive experience with a 3 kilometre walking trail that winds through naturalistic habitats and curated exhibits. Visitors can explore the botanical garden featuring plants from every continent, interact with the animals in their semi-natural enclosures, and enjoy educational talks delivered by the park’s zookeepers and conservation staff. Educational programmes are a key pillar of Parco Gallorose, with tailored activities for school groups, summer camps, and birthday parties. The park offers facilities for sensory workshops, animal interaction sessions, and the opportunity to learn about conservation, biodiversity, and sustainable living. With its combination of zoo collection, botanical variety, historic exhibits, and hands‑on learning experiences, Parco Gallorose provides a memorable day for families, nature enthusiasts, and curious travellers alike.
