Urban Safari in Vauban

Street square and neighborhood to visit

To make the department discover its inhabitants and to travel travellers, the Tourism Committee of Doubs had the idea of developing this original concept: the Safari GPS. Halfway between the track game and the treasure hunt, it leads you to meet the most important places in the territory. Among them, of course, the fortifications of Vauban at Besançon, classified as UNESCO World Heritage since 2008. Want to decipher the Master Vauban puzzle? Very good; will therefore require a GPS to return geographical coordinates, as well as a hint of curiosity and a good dose of observation… Accessible to all, an activity that combines nature, culture, and adventure!

Tariff: free if you own a GPS; otherwise you can rent one at the Tourist Office.

Duration: variable.

Difficulty: pretty easy.

Other practical information: a road map available at the Citadelle of Besançon.
