Description

This beautiful, recently-built park designed by the architect Biking is located on the Foron’s bank in a natural setting. The centre of its rolling lawns is decorated with a waterfall and water jets.
The Parc des Écureuils is a peaceful natural area, ideal for recharging your batteries in the forest. It's said that if you keep a low profile, you can easily spot red squirrels hopping from branch to branch. Legend or reality, you tell us! The site showcases the local flora, with its tall trees and preserved undergrowth, as well as its magnificent rose garden. Simple signs explain the life of flora and fauna, so you can learn as you walk. It's the perfect place for a quiet stroll in the fresh air, far from the noise of the city. Picnic tables are available and children can choose from three separate play areas. A stream and a pagoda grace the rolling park. The ideal place for a family reunion or picnic with friends! Dogs and bicycles are prohibited. Children remain the responsibility of their parents.
