From Chalais to the chalets... passing by THE FARM

This path, which can be done in both directions, connects Chalais to the Arche des Crétillons. It presents the low-altitude landscape and the importance of agricultural work to maintain open environments. On each panel, a small game for children (> 10 years) reinforces the playful aspect of the route. A 7 km loop allows you to successively take 3 educational paths to return to the starting point: passing through Chalais, passing through Ricard, and passing through Réchy.
This route is a great opportunity to enjoy the natural riches of the Crétillons site. Closely linked to an ancestral pastoral activity, the natural meadows and steppes in the area represent elements of high ecological and landscape value. Young and old can admire the animals distributed throughout the site before taking a well-deserved break at the farm's refreshment stand.
