HIGHLIGHT | 40th anniversary of the Caps et Marais d’Opale Regional Nature Park

This year, the Regional Nature Park is turning 40, and what better way to celebrate than with a great party! So we look forward to seeing you on Saturday 12 September: in the morning across the Audomarois and the Pays de Lumbres, and in the afternoon in Saint-Martin-lez-Tatinghem on the forecourt of the Maison du Marais et du Parc! A day in two parts!

In the morning, we’re offering a choice of six nature walks to help you discover your local area and the initiatives being carried out to preserve its natural heritage. We’ll be talking about: birds, pond wildlife, river conservation, sustainable agriculture, geology and nature in the city.

There’s bound to be a walk to suit you! They’re free and open to anyone aged 7 and over! Booking is essential on 03 21 87 90 90 or at info@parc-opale.fr

In the afternoon, it’s all about the children and their families! Join us on the forecourt of the Maison du Marais and in the green space by the mill for fun activities, games and plenty more!

On the programme: Bird concert, Night-time storytelling, A zany show about bats, Art workshop, Eco-clown, Lots of stalls with games, Pony rides (at a very reasonable price, to help pay for the feed).

Entry is free from 2 pm; all the festival’s activities are free (except the pony rides).
