The site stretches over a 20-hectare wetland. Leaving from Beaufort or Gée, follow the Couasnon for a walk immersed in nature.
At first glance, this landscape is commonplace, but as you walk along, you discover a site teeming with life. You'll never look at a hedge, a pond or even a river the same way again! 

Take advantage of this walk to discover the village of Beaufort-en-Vallée, its Place Jeanne de Laval and its houses and townhouses.

In Gée, let yourself be charmed by the old presbytery and the picturesque Romanesque church. You and your family can also enjoy the ecopark and its facilities: picnic tables, meadows grazed by Solognotes, basketball court, zip-line...
