It's a beautiful walk to visit this large park with its large lake! You have to go to the sixth arrondissement, the chic neighborhood. It is a very green park with a nautical base and beautiful trees, greenhouses and even a zoo. To try!

Large park to walk around, it's very pleasant. I didn't expect to have a free zoo inside the park. This is really unexpected! Very nice experience, even if the weather was not good. A huge lake where there must be a lot of people in summer. A corner of greenery in Lyon.

As soon as you enter this large park, on your right you can see large glass and cast iron greenhouses built around 1867 and partly rebuilt in 1972, whose central body is 21 meters high. Inside there are tropical and subtropical plants from the continent, while a greenhouse is dedicated mostly to camellias. Here, we can see among many others, the chewing gum plant and the agave from which the sisal fiber is extracted. How many of us have imagined the "big tree" of the fragrant frangipani? In reality, and to my amazement, the plant that produces this popular flower used in cosmetics and perfumes is a low, almost groundcover plant. When appearances are deceiving! 😉 Entry starts from 9.00 and is free.

We visited the park first by bicycle and later on foot. It was absolutely gorgeous both times. We visited today April 10th there were tons of things in bloom. Make sure to stop in botanic garden to see what is blooming there. Gorgeous park with a lake, zoo, botanical garden, conservatory and biking and running paths. Bathrooms are minimal so plan accordingly.

Too beautiful park! It's really huge, there's a lot to do there. The whole zoo side, the rose garden, the lake tour, the Rosalie, the children's games... Whether with friends or family, it's super pleasant and we can have picnics. Plus, entry is free. I really advise you!

Several parts of the park each with a different interest The greenhouses: closed during our visit: for renovation. The arboretum: very beautiful with all the flowers and trees The park: large paths and lawns The zoo (free access): small enclosures for many animals

What's better than going to this Park when you're on vacation. Everything is gathered in one place between the zoo, the diversity of flowers and trees, the lake and so on... Very clean park with places to sit and eat, enough to spend half a year there. daytime. A real breath of fresh air located in the heart of Lyon

Beautiful park, full of beautiful vegetation, a zoo and some sports facilities. There are pedal boats for rent on the lake, you can breathe fresh air and a lot of tranquility. I highly recommend it for a day of relaxation

I think this might be the most beautiful park I’ve ever visited. Great, wide running paths (no cars…2.5 mile loop), beautiful gardens and a zoo. Directly across the street from the Marriott.

The size of the park is remarkable, so much so that we can spend a whole day both to rest in the public greenery and for the different activities, from botanical areas, to the animals present at the rides, the lake and the guided train. Designed for families and in general for everyone. Also cared for and well managed.
