Villeneuve-sous-Dammartin (77 ) – For the first time ever, the largest excavated soil reclamation site in the Paris region opens its doors to the general public. Thanks to a fun and educational escape game, aimed at families as well as lovers of landscapes and unusual walks, the public can discover how soil from construction sites is received and then reused on site to create new natural and agricultural spaces.

This open-air escape game, which unfolds over a 3 km course, will also provide an opportunity to admire the Å’il du Ciel, a monumental 400-meter-long work of land art imagined by Antoine Grumbach.
