Super journée avec des gens compétents qui étaient aux petits oignons pour tout nous expliquer avec pédagogie.
Le repas pris sur site était aussi parfait (tomate mozzarella, pate façon chinoise, super plateau de fromage, et petite tarte framboise ou fraise).
Apres petit débriefing et course sur 2h
Il ya neme eu un baptême de piste.
Bref super journée à refaire.

As you enter this unique world you will be struck by the immensity around you. Between natural light and shape, sequoias and giant bamboos rise majestically to form a royal alleyway. Nature becomes a Cathedral, with a towering 40m oak and 35m magnolia; the valley is so vast that even a dozy dragon could take a nap in the refreshing shade of the gingko tree. The ideal place to dream, to relax, to reflect, to play ant to revel in the joys of discovery... lose all sense of time and lose youself in another world, in the heart of the Cevennes. Over 1,000 varieties of remarkable, rare flowers, trees and plants create an exuberant decor where visitors wander in enchantment throught the Zen Gardens, Victoria greenhouses, mysterious labyrinth... inhaling precious perfumes and enjoying scenes from Asia or America, showns and artistic Performances. Unique in Europe, dating back to the 19th century, and listed as one of France's most beautiful Gardens, the Bambouseraie is a monumental naural experience, sure to open both the eyes and hearts of spellbound visitors.

My two daughters just loved this place, they had been asking to do something like this for a long time and at 15 euro each this represents really good value! The instructor was great, really good humoured, calm and patient (thank you Miko from the Irish family!), we arrived quite early in the morning so there was just one other family doing the same parcours. As I said, it is excellent value for money - we were there for just over 3 hours, and the instructor was there when the girls needed him but otherwise let them get on with it themselves. I was particularly pleased that my eldest daughter finally overcame her fear of zipwires and was happily zooming along them. All in all a wonderful attraction, I am sure we will be back!

This museum tells something of the history of official persecution against Southern French protestants [Camisards] following the Edict of Nantes (1685). [There is quite a parallel to the way that the protestant Covenanters were persecuted in Scotland at around the same time]. The old farmhouse [Mas] has been set out with a mixture of modern displays and accurate period rooms which give an indication of what life and faith practice was like for these simple folk who sought to worship as they thought they should. Tours are in French, but there is an excellent self-guide tour leaflet provided. The museum touches on a period in France that is often forgotten, and one can only wonder how the whole of Europe might have been different if France had not taken the turn that it did at this time. There is an excellent bookshop and resource centre. Children might find some aspects over their heads. The Museum will close for lunch, so take advantage of the grounds and pack a picnic lunch as well.

Nous avons participé à un stage de calligraphie orientale organisé par ce musée de niche dont le but est de retracer tout ce que vous avez toujours voulu savoir sur l'histoire de l'écriture et des moyens pour écrire à la main . le stage était passionnant, l'animateur fabuleux, l'accueil convivial et nous reviendrons certainement pour un stage complémentaire . Ce musée est accessible sans problème à une participante PMR : il existe un élévateur électrique et un fauteuil disponible à l'étage . Nous avons aimé la vitrine consacrée à la correspondance pendant la guerre de 14-18 et c'est tragique de constater que la première génération de garçons entièrement alphabétisés est morte dans les tranchées .
