Between plateau and valley, the Jardin d'Art et d'essais (Art Garden) celebrates the rhythm of the seasons through its rich biodiversity. It is the keeper of a sinkhole that drains a large wet pond that supplies the sources of the Valmont fish farm. Bamboo is used to prevent mud!
Laid out over an area of 2,5 ha, these gardens contain 3 500 species and a variety of exotic grasses. 130 bamboos. A visit here makes for a rich and peaceful experience which awakens the five senses.
