In a few words

Enjoying a family picnic in the shade of large hundred-year-old trees, getting the children moving by participating in exploration games, discovering vegetables in the garden, breathing in the scent of flowers, collecting shells at the river's edge, walking alongside giant 300-year-old trees on a hike through the ancient forest and visiting the exhibits of a mansion steeped in history are some of the activities offered on this unique site.

Located 40 minutes west of Quebec City, this breathtaking site is a favorite spot for lovers of history, nature, culture, and relaxation. Recognized as one of the most beautiful gardens in North America, it also offers magnificent exhibitions (family history with antique furniture and paintings, embroidery, lace, and art gallery) at the Maison de Pointe Platon.

Curious Nature An exploration game about garden gnomes and butterfly fairies, the perfect way to spend a fun Sunday with the family!

I have always been fascinated by garden gnomes. These beautiful little creatures, guardians of nature, bring a touch of whimsy to gardens. When I learned that there was an exploration game about gnomes and butterfly fairies in one of the most beautiful gardens in North America, I knew I had to bring my two young explorers to participate!
