THE WOOD OF ARESQUIERS

THE WOOD OF ARESQUIERS
This family's experience:

Activities: We went to the Bois des Aresquiers, near Frontignan, just 20 minutes from Montpellier. We followed a trail between salt marshes, small ponds, and a pine forest. We threw pebbles into the pond, jumped from trunks, and explored the paths through the bushes

Highlights: The kids loved throwing pebbles, jumping from trunks, and exploring the paths. "It was really incredible!" We also enjoyed the autumn colors and the salty air ✨
