Unusual night at the Château d'Usson

Presentation Practical information
Let's solve riddles as a family 1 hour from Bordeaux

What a curious story... A château from the mid-16th century moved a few kilometers and a sumptuous 9-hectare park dotted with enigmas and challenges; the Château d'Usson truly lives up to its name as the Château des Enigmes.
Here you are caught up in the game. Before sunset, reach the Cabane aux Enigmes, suspended 10 meters high in a centuries-old cedar tree using a guying system.

Perched in the park's trees, the 5 cabins are all different and absolutely unique. The Cabane des moussaillons and Cabane des Ecureuils appeal to children (family cabin for up to 5 people), while the Cabane Mille et Une Nuits and Cabane Zen are shared by two. Each of these eco-constructions contains a small gas heater in winter. Lighting comes from portable lamps and candles provided upon your arrival in a "survival kit."
At the sound of the bell, you can hoist up a basket filled with goodies and fully enjoy the terrace of your cabin.
Eco-friendly bonus: for each night spent in one of these cabins, Coralie and Alexandre, the owners, commit to planting a tree through Planète Urgence's reforestation project in Indonesia, "My tree, my tribe". Perfect!!
