Along the rivers

As we pass through Tence, let’s take a moment to follow the rivers…

Leaving from the stade du Pont, the start already sets the tone, as we hear the murmur of the Lignon. We start by taking the footbridge. Small signs guide you along the way.

A family walk to discover the river, water and biodiversity along the Sérigoule and Lignon.

    Discover while playing

    How does the water cycle work?

    Who lives in our rivers?

    Why do we follow the height of the river ?

    These are just some of the questions raised on the information panels set up along the way.
    You’ll learn lots of little things, but that’s not all!

    A walk to play with, where the quest for each clue will enable us to answer the questions.
    Come to theTourist Office, pick up the leaflet and collect the letters that will help you discover the mystery word of the trail.

    Make the most of the river and its inhabitants by observing, listening, smelling and touching…

    I observe, I feel...

    The family of ducks splashing around in front of us is just great!

    Mama duck and her ducklings just under the bridge, what luck! You don’t see them all the time, they’re wild…

    Along the way, we stop off at the playgrounds on the banks of the Sérigoule!

    We pass through a small tunnel… the old ramparts when Tence was fortified.

    At the end of the trail, we take back all our answers and find the mystery word.

    But the best part is seeing the birds in the feeders we’ve found along the Sérigoule!
