Outdoor activities
Responsible behaviour
During the winter, wildlife is particularly vulnerable.
The Park has compiled a list of best practices and federal and cantonal regulations for enjoying nature-based leisure activities in compliance with the law, depending on the activities practised and the areas concerned.
Order fruit trees
The Park has had a number of old local varieties grafted. It offers a consultancy service for local residents and a special package that includes tree pruning for 6 years. This initiative is helping to preserve forgotten varieties and safeguard our plant heritage. Orders are open until 31 January for planting in early April.
Supporting the Park
Becoming a member of the Park means joining an association that works for sustainable regional development. Individuals, couples, businesses, or collectives—everyone can support the Park's actions.
Each member receives information from the Park and can participate in the association's decision-making bodies (assembly, general meetings). New this year, members also benefit from a 10% discount on Parc à la carte activities.
