1.       Discover the mountains like real little mountain people!
 
Montagne Expériences offers your children fun and educational afternoons in the great outdoors on the theme of the mountains in the company of a mountain guide. Three different workshops are offered so that your children can discover the mountain at their own pace:
  • The secret forest: A fun walk off the beaten track to discover the secrets of the local fauna and flora. A great way to make your children aware of biodiversity and the importance of ecology.
  • Koh Lanta: Montagne Expériences revisits the famous TV show for the pleasure of your children. The aim of the workshop is to learn about survival in the wilderness with sporting events, but also practical tests such as learning how to make a fire, build an emergency shelter or make traps.
  • Hut building / land art: If you like the cartoon "Bob the Builder", they will love to create and build shelters with natural materials that they can find freely in nature. And why not also try to create works of art? The result of their creation is sure to make them very proud!

2.       Play the little miner for a morning!
 
Chantal, from the association Le Palais de la Mine, offers your children the chance to step back in time and to live as a real little miner for a morning. Equipped with geologist's hammers, your children will collect different rocks to identify them and prepare their own exhibition! They will also visit part of the site of the old silver-lead mines, in particular a gallery and the Palais de la Mine (Ecole Française des Mines from 1802 to 1814). A very instructive morning in the open air!
