This path, which can be followed in both directions, links 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) enhances 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 wealth of the Crétillons site. Closely linked to an ancient pastoral activity, the natural meadows and steppes of the surroundings represent elements of high ecological and landscape value. Young and old can admire the animals spread throughout the site before taking a well-deserved break at the farm refreshment point.
