Outdoor Escape Games

Two treasure hunts to discover by bike or on foot: one from Barjac (or Natura Lodge), the other departing from St-Jean de Maruéjols (6 km from Natura Lodge).

Go on a treasure hunt in Maubois ! A dozen events along a hiking trail in the shade of the oaks to discover the local heritage and... the treasure of Maubois!
A permanent, free activity to do independently all year. Easy 3km trail, from 5 years old. Duration: 2 hrs.
Map to be obtained from the reception of Aven d'Orgnac (10 mins from Natura Lodge)

The “la Baume des Fades” in Méjannes-le-Clap (16 km from Barjac) is a shaded walk of 1.4 km perfectly suited to children. Punctuated by 18 stations with explanatory panels, it invites the whole family to open up to nature by appealing to the 5 senses through fun games.

A day in the Cévennes

The Little Steam Train of the Cévennes transports you to the Vallée des Gardons, between Saint-Jean du Gard and Anduze. An original, entertaining and instructive journey among grandiose landscapes!

To be combined with a visit to the extraordinary Bambouseraie in Anduze and discover the magic and exoticism of the unique bamboo forest of Europe! La Bambouseraie is an invitation to reverie, contemplation and tranquility with its extraordinary botanical garden. It is located near Anduze, at the gateway to the Cévennes, just 40 minutes from the Natura Lodge. A Zen Eden where many scenes from "Wages of Fear" were shot!

And to complete this beautiful day, don't miss the "Parfum d'Aventure" park in Générargues to travel from the age of two in the trees on an Eco-responsible and protected site. We love it!!!

The crocodile farm

Unique in Europe, the Pierrelatte Crocodile Farm (45 minutes from Barjac) is a huge landscaped greenhouse of 8,000 m², with an outdoor course of 4,000 m² in which more than 400 animals roam.

Rosalies, 2CV or Vélorail?

What could be better than sharing a little Rosalie ride with the family? At OCCITAN'E-BIKE in Goudargues, the "4-seater" Rosalies Berg are equipped with two seats with pedals and two child seats. It's up to you to choose between muscular rosalies or electrically assisted rosalies ;-)

Test slow tourism by renting a Genuine 2CV in Valvignères to experience the Ardèche but... not too much quickly ;-) The good life, the sun, the cicadas, nature and above all... take the time to discover, enjoy and live. The Dolce vita, sorry the Deuch'é Vita offers itself over to you! 

The Vélorail in Saint-Jean le Centennier, just 45 km from Barjac, is a shaded 10 km route in the hills of southern Ardèche with 5 viaducts and 1 tunnel.
