The Parc Zoologique et Forestier Michel-Corbasson, also known as Parc Forestier, is a green space, botanical garden, and zoo located on the heights of Mont Montravel in Noumea, New Caledonia. The park covers an area of 34 hectares and offers a unique combination of natural beauty and wildlife. It was established in 1962 with the aim of preserving a core of dry forest and some endemic species in the heart of the city.
