Tourisme durable

Whether on a self-guided tour or a themed guided tour, a stroll through the garden is a botanical journey from one continent to the next. Younger visitors can take part in fun activities that introduce them to ecological gardening and raise their awareness of natural environments.
The garden reveals its beauty and interest in every season; in winter, it is particularly attractive with the blossoming of its 30 different species of mimosa.
