From the top, you have a beautiful view and are, of course, ideal for zipline fans like myself. Unfortunately, during my visit, the activities were only available to employees of a company that had rented the entire facility for the day. If you're planning a visit, it's worth checking in advance whether the park is open. The mini golf course and the summer toboggan run are definitely something for children or those with a fear of heights.

From up here, you have a beautiful view down into the valley and across the Vire River. If the weather's good, you can even go for a short hike.
