A life-size treasure hunt in Touraine!

Did you know the “Escape games”? Well here are the “Game species” !
What better way to discover nature throughout our region than to do it while having fun? Follow the tracks, solve the puzzles of this great natural treasure hunt and geocaching on no less than 30 preserved natural sites in the Center region.

How to participate in a “Cash game”? It’s very simple, you just have to download from the Conservatory’s website, the sheets that correspond to the places you want to visit.
Another possibility: if you are a geocacher, you can go directly to this site.

The Conservatoire d’Espaces Naturels can also provide you with the documents corresponding to the natural sites in your area. You will have the possibility to print them if necessary and distribute them to the participants.
On each site, a path strewn with enigmas, codes, puzzles… leads to a box containing the Conservatory’s treasure. Participants will be able to find a different one on each site visited and thus collect them. A total of 30 treasures are to be found on 30 natural sites spread over the entire region (5 sites concerned for each department)! Educational sheets on the species concerned, whether they are fauna or flora, accompany each treasure and can be downloaded from the website, on the page reserved for the game.
