The Forest of Experiences
Set in the heart of La Cantinière, this forest is unique in the Rhône region. It raises visitors' awareness of the beauty and richness of nature through playful sculptures and works of art along a
3.5 km hike. The journey begins by passing through a gateway, a dreamlike breach in the undergrowth. This is the beginning of a sensory immersion that takes you away from the stresses of everyday life, where you can play with the echo, smell the forest, climb the stream or meditate on a deckchair under the tree canopy.
