Visit of the site

Ready to experience an exceptional adventure? The Virelles Aquascope offers you a journey from the depths to the surface of the pond.

Start your visit by discovering our temporary exhibitions with breathtaking photos. Gradually, the route will take you into the museum space, to immerse you in the heart of the pond. Our aquariums will reveal to you the different species that live in this body of water. In our video room, follow the life of the pond throughout the seasons.

Ready for the walk? It's time to take a closer look at the pond: below the water, at the water's edge, from a viewpoint located in the trees. In the middle of the route, admire our bees from an educational apiary. Take a short - or long - detour into the Jardin de St. John's Wort , an ethnobotanical garden dedicated to the uses of plants... Then, you will discover how you too can contribute to the protection of nature and the environment.

Finally, end your visit by relaxing on our terrace with a panoramic view of the pond adjoining the playground. La Cantine de l'Aquascope offers you dishes based on local and fair trade products. A whole program to ensure you spend a magnificent day in a green setting!
