Jardin des Lakas

It's an extraordinary garden

The Lakas garden is surrounded by hedgerows and features a singular line of ash trees over a hundred years old, as well as ancient fruit trees.
Its name means "little lakes" or "water holes".

Many events take place on this site:


Plantes en fête in April
Les Mercredis aux Lakas on the bandstand in summer, concerts for all the family, etc.


It's also the starting point for walks such as the Gravette and Tabardière circuits.


Equipment and games for the tribes

There are a number of features that are very popular with visitors, allowing them to make the most of this green space:


games for children
bowling greens
picnic tables
fitness trail.




Did you know?

At the entrance to the park, a small building combining stone, brick, slate and clay seems to be acting as a lookout.
This small restored pavilion dates back to 1822. It used to be a hunting lodge on the edge of the village.
Hunters would come here for shelter if the bad weather made their favourite activity difficult. They would play a game of "cow", a card game that was very popular in the region.
