Tree climbing
Our favorite and the 2021 novelty: “& nbsp; Tree climbing & nbsp;” on site, in our woods on the hillside behind the house!
The host, Eric, is passionate about trees, “super nice”, patient, and certified “Youth and Sports”.
Tree climbing is a gentle, original activity, close to nature, respectful of trees and accessible from 7 years old.
Price 160 € for a group of maximum 8 people. We offer this activity once a week in summer (registration on site).
You can also book a private session (all year round) on the day of your choice (contact us).
We love and recommend, it’s a fantastic experience !
