Château d'Angers: Entry Ticket
From€14
A lush theme park of botanical wonders, butterflies, and hot air balloons!
Terra Botanica in Angers offers you France's first botanical theme park, where 275,000 plants from around the world create an extraordinary living laboratory. Spread across 18 hectares, this unique attraction combines education with adventure through themed gardens, interactive experiences, and family-friendly rides that celebrate the plant kingdom.
You'll discover four distinct universes, each telling the story of plants through different eras and environments. From prehistoric jungles with towering ferns to vibrant Asian gardens filled with colourful blossoms, every area provides hands-on learning opportunities. The park's gentle boat rides, butterfly greenhouses, and treetop walkways let you explore nature from multiple perspectives while educational workshops teach you about biodiversity and sustainable gardening practices.
Terra Botanica opens daily at 10:00am, closing at 6:00pm or 7:00pm depending on the season. Allow a full day to explore all four themed areas properly - most visitors spend 5-7 hours discovering the gardens, attractions, and educational exhibits. The park is wheelchair accessible throughout, with multilingual information available.
Your entry ticket includes access to all gardens and most attractions, though the hot air balloon ride requires an additional fee paid on-site. You can bring your own food to enjoy in designated picnic areas, or purchase refreshments from the on-site facilities. While exploring the Loire Valley region, you might also want to visit Château de Brézé for underground exploration or experience the grandeur of Château de Chambord, both showcasing the rich heritage that makes this area of France so special for families and nature lovers alike.
