Visits and collections

Among the trees and plants

How does this whole ecosystem work that leads from a seed to a plant, and from a plant to vegetables? How does the organization of the garden influence production? We all have an idea of the answer without knowing it precisely. So follow the guide and go (re)discover nature, in our gardens which offer guided tours, or take a stroll in the orchards to pick your favorite fruits.
Our gardens and orchards invite you to share their knowledge of nature's rhythms and cultivation techniques, or just to taste their fruits! Yum!
For the more daredevils who don't like having their feet on the ground, it is even possible to reach the peaks in complete safety.

Real adventurers

Have a finger in the pie

Ready to play adventurers and become a real McGyver of plants? Young or old, come learn to recognize the different plants. You will know how to identify which ones are edible, and how to create real recipes from the plants and other wild fruits that you pick in the woods. In the form of games, puzzles, workshops, familiarize yourself with everything that grows, crawls, digs... in short, with the environment that surrounds us.
The most daring will even be able to try a total immersion in the wilderness in survival mode! As for the airheads, they will turn towards the stars to look at the planets and many other things.

Which ones will make you fall in love the most?

Meet the animals

We wonder which ones will make you fall in love with them the most! The miniature goats from Shipinours, or the disheveled Angora goats? The best way to get an idea is to go and meet them all to learn all about breeding these animals and, perhaps, pet them.
At the Petit Poucet farm or at Naturaludik, you can also see ponies and donkeys and learn how to properly care for them. Finally, for an unusual and educational experience, head to the Domaine de Candale to discover the wonderful world of bees. Dressed in beekeeping gear, it's time to open the hive to better understand its fundamental role in biodiversity.
