Sports and leisure activities Yvelines

A small compact massif of 115 hectares, acquired in 1974 by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry to a promoter (in exchange for the construction of the new village of Maurepas) composed of the Courance valley, consisting of young oak stands, and the plateau, poor pine and birch, which borders the south. Although the forest is quite difficult to access, a sports course has been built around its pond.

The farm is a safe value with the little Parisian. Little used to other types of animals than apartment cats, your children will probably be very enthusiastic about participating in the giant Easter egg hunt of La farm. This hunt has an advantage: it takes into account the age of the children involved. Thus, three-year-olds will not be in competition with those of seven, the age differential being too large and de facto, unfair competition. In addition to animals, this farm offers interactive workshops for children.

Managed by the Office National des Forêts, this natural area close to the north of the Saint-Germain-en-Laye forest is the ideal place to organise picnics or enjoy a well-deserved break during a hike. You can also observe many species of birds by following a beautiful path. Many people go jogging around the park, which is 4.5 kilometres long. Others come here to simply enjoy the peace and quiet of the place, which is indeed particularly calm and peaceful.

Your children like animals, chocolate and treasure hunts? In this case, the great hunting of Easter eggs in the Thoiry area will certainly delight them. This hunt, which has existed for more than thirty years, is now a real institution. Conceived by the Earl and Countess of La Panouse, this giant hunt gathers many children every year eager to put their hands on thousands of eggs hidden in the gardens of Du castle. The rates to participate in this hunt vary depending on the years, averaging between 25 and 30 € for your child.

This involves initiation and development in the practice of leisure and competition rowing. This practice is possible on weekends and weekends throughout the year for members. It is possible to host school and discovery courses by day or week. The place of practice is located in Port-marly, on the dead arm of the Seine, protected from any commercial navigation.

The pretty Migneaux swimming pool is located on the island of the same name. Access is via a bridge spanning an arm of the Seine, which leads to 2 hectares of lawn, literally packed with people at the height of summer, and it's sometimes difficult to get a place in the Olympic-sized (50 m) outdoor pool. Two beach-volleyball courts, a paddling pool and a 25 m covered pool complete the infrastructure of this aquatic leisure facility, which is a great attraction in summer.

This rowing club has a very pleasant 2 500 metre long water plan with six marked corridors. This basin meets the standards of the major competitions and has already hosted the French Championship and the Canoe World Championship. A large number of clubs in the Paris region and Normandy are coming to this place throughout the year. At the end of 2009, there will be the large aquatic pole of Mantises, whose first stone was laid in February 2008, with great pomp. On close to 5 000 square metres, this great amusement area will come to light, instead of the three Degas towers, in the district of Painters. This very modern and very integrated space space will be composed of 4 basins: a sports pool with 6 lines of water (25 metres per 15 metres), a learning and leisure pool on close to 360 square metres, a 80 square metre paddling pool and the slides.
