Project life

Rehabilitating the Rochers mound
The Vaux-le-Pénil redevelopment project is a response to the degradation of this site, marked by backfilling and illegal dumping. The reclamation of inert soil from local construction sites on the site will enable us to rehabilitate this derelict land and transform the site, giving it a new use as a natural and recreational area. The rehabilitation of the site is directly self-financed by the circular economy of inert soil.
The aim of the project is threefold: to restore natural environments, create a landscape unit in harmony with the surrounding mounds, and open up the park to the public.
In partnership with the municipality, this project will be accessible to all and will become a space for relaxation, sports and landscape observation.
- a belvedere with an orientation table offering panoramic views and inviting visitors to explore the surrounding valleys.
- a quiet zone to preserve and promote local biodiversity.
