Featured, Evasion Nature, Children love it

Looking for a fun ride? Go with the family in search of the lost documents of Gaultier, heir to Chéneché! He needs your help to overcome the challenges that have stood in his way. You want to know more ? Let's discreetly follow the Laurent family to discover this outdoor adventure game belonging to the brand's network " Expériences Famille ».
Will you be up to it?
“Is everyone here? » Quickly Anne-Hélène is waiting for us to give us the brief! I thus gathered my troop who had agreed to follow me for this new adventure. Who am I ? Géraldine, the mother of the Laurent family. And today with Lucile and her grandpa, we traveled to Chéneché to solve the mystery of Gaultier's lost documents.
Anne-Hélène therefore attacks her brief by explaining to us that heart of the XVnd century Gaultier, heir to Chéneché was dispossessed of his property by the terrible Gilles de Rais. But Gaultier, to protect himself, concealed somewhere in the village documents proving his rights which were never discovered! We must therefore walk the streets and paths of Chéneché in his footsteps to update some little-known pieces of history and heritage of this small village.
Once the explanations are done, we are over-motivated and learn about the tools that Anne-Hélène left us: a map, puzzles, something to take notes, a compass, … the complete kit of the good investigator ! The organizer's last sentence sticks in our minds “Will you be up to this challenge? »
In search of lost documents
The answer is obvious to us: of course! So here we go to the place of first challenge. We cross the village to arrive in front of a tower and grab the tools at our disposal. Lucile takes out a small parchment from the bag with a blank text that we must complete to access the next clue. My apprentice detectives take care of it in less than three minutes, recover the new location clue and we are off to the surrounding forest for the next puzzle.
The surroundings are beautiful and relaxing, this allows us to slow down the pace a little to enjoy it a little. We are moving forward quickly despite some difficulties for Lucile on certain questions. A bit like an escape game, these are very varied: padlocks to open, code with numbers or letters to decipher, blank texts, charades, etc.
We really enjoy putting our skills to these tests. We laugh a lot and the atmosphere is very good-natured and above all highlights everyone's ability to help each other and work together to find the treasure.
After crossing forest, fields, bridges and other alleys, we return to the center of the village to the ultimate riddle. It's the moment of truth for us when we get there: have our clues led us to the right place? Are we going to find the cache of these documents kept secret until then?
The answer is yes ! After a few minutes, we manage to open the last padlock and extract the documents from their hiding place. The victory is therefore ours! Gaultier would be proud of us after all these centuries of finally restoring his legacy!
Anne-Hélène then arrives to congratulate us and asks us to keep these documents carefully because there are no other copies. We nevertheless decide to leave them hidden. If Gaultier's descendants come to question us, we will give them the location of the cache but in the meantime they will stay nice and warm. And with us, the secret will remain well kept!
Another excellent moment shared by all three, and Lucile is already asking me what our next investigation will be because she enjoyed playing the game so much. No doubt, we will at least recommend this one to those around us!
If, like Géraldine and her family, you love those moments when successful family cohesion is key, find other suggestions for activities and experiences with the Expériences Famille or the game of geocaching Tèrra Aventura.
