Walk through an autumn garden as leaves turn red and gold, guided by a horticulturist’s hands-on perspective. The walk follows winding paths and planted beds where soil, bark and late blooms create rich textures and scents, inviting close observation and seasonal reflection. Expect a calm, engaging pace focused on plant care, species choices and the cultivation challenges that shape urban green spaces.

The experience blends sensory detail with expert insight and is conducted in French.

26 – 28 June

Conceived and directed by Ágnes Havas, this itinerant festival combines cycle-tourism with a rich musical programme. Concerts range from classical and baroque to opera and jazz, presented across lakeside stages that dialogue with the landscape. The project foregrounds sustainable cyclo-tourism and cross-border artistic cooperation, pairing performances with local gastronomy. Lighting and acoustic choices favour intimacy and clarity, while artists of international calibre create moments of contemplative lyricism, conviviality and sensory immersion around the rhythms of the lake.

Learn simple facts about how these reptiles live, move, and hide while using your eyes and curiosity.

In French. Kids ages from 6 to 12.
