Things to see and do Le Mont-Dore

Jean-Louis Martin will make you discover his honey house, the point of sale and the mini-museum of the bees which were installed in a large yellow house decorated with honeycombs. Niaouli honey, letchi honey, jamelon honey, coffee honey, royal jelly... Enough to delight the gourmets. The honey house has a direct sales point if you want to leave with one (or more!) jar(s) of their delicious honey. A "Discovery Farm" excursion is also possible to learn all about beekeeping through the ages.

Dominated by its square bell tower, the Church of the Conception was built in 1874 on the site where a Marist mission was established. The religious worked on a coffee plantation. Every year in August, a pilgrimage is organized on foot from Noumea. The 2.80 m high statue of the Virgin Mary is a copy of Notre-Dame-de-Fourvière in Lyon. The stained glass windows in the choir recount the events that took place in Balade. In 1843, the ship Bucéphale landed missionaries who survived as best they could.
