Faunia Madrid: tickets, transport and visit planning

Faunia is about a 19-minute drive from this three-star hotel. Public transport options recommended by the park include Metro line 9 to Valdebernardo, Cercanías line C2 to Vicálvaro and EMT bus line 71, which runs directly to the entrance from Plaza de Manuel Becerra.

If you plan to use the Metro, allow time to travel from your starting station to Valdebernardo. For driving, the approaches are the A-3 toward Valencia, exit 6 (Valdebernardo); the M-40 northbound, exit 13; the M-40 southbound, exit 12; and the M-23 extension of O’Donnell, Vicálvaro exit.

The park’s official address is Avenida de las Comunidades, 28, 28032 Madrid. Flat-rate parking costs €6.50, and validating your parking ticket on arrival can help avoid waiting when you leave.

If you are arranging an airport connection, the drive from Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport to Hostal Mediterranea takes about 70 minutes; the Madrid airport-to-hotel guide covers that journey.

Faunia’s hours change by season and date, so check the official site before you go. Park access and ticket-office opening continue until one hour before closing. The prices below are starting prices and may vary according to your visit date.

Visitors claiming a senior, large-family or disability discount must bring the corresponding official proof; seniors must show an ID document. Paid animal interactions do not include park admission, so you need a separate park ticket for the park itself.

A Zoo Madrid + Faunia pack costs €39.90. It includes one full-day general, children’s or reduced ticket for each park and is valid on an opening day of each park through December 31 of the current year. Check the official site for the terms that apply to your planned visit.

Start by checking the calendar for your chosen date, then use the park map to plan your route among the habitats. The app can help you track educational-show and interaction times; confirm the schedule at the park because activity times may change.

Faunia offers free wheelchair rental for the day, subject to availability, with no advance reservations. Electric mobility scooters cost €25 for the day with a €50 refundable deposit; they are subject to availability at the Information point and cannot be reserved in advance.

For a nearby green-space addition to a Madrid itinerary, Parque Forestal de Valdebernardo is another local destination. Keep the park visit’s date-specific opening hours and activity schedule in mind when deciding how to arrange the day.
