Le Sentier des minimouilles et sa BD : une nouvelle aventure ludique et pédagogique !

Les personnages Aude, Quentin, Draz et leurs amis retournent au XIXe siècle. Accompagnés de la vache Pistache (mascotte de Flumet), ils aident Lisa et sa famille dont la source d'eau est menacée par de vils gredins. Mais ils sont victimes d'un étrange phénomène...

Grâce à ce sentier, les randonneurs pourront découvrir les zones humides, leurs secrets et leurs petits et fragiles habitants, comme le triton alpestre ou la grenouille rousse. Ils pourront aussi reporter les indices trouvés tout au long du sentier sur leur BD.

Bonne chance à tous pour retrouver les trois clés qui ferment la source !

Informations pratiques :

+ Départ de Praz-sur-Arly : Parking des Grabilllles
+ Temps de marche : environ 1h30 (comptez 2h30 avec les jeux)

BD Draz et les Minimouilles (51 pages, 6 €) en vente à l'accueil de l’Office de tourisme.

La Thonnaz no longer rings

To venture out on this new trail, solve the riddles along the way and find the hidden treasure, you'll need water, a snack, walking shoes... but also the comic book and its game kit, sold at the Praz tourist office for 6€.

You can also eat and sleep at the Plan de l'Aar refuge if you want to extend your mountain experience and enjoy nature.

Bonus: if you manage to collect all the clues, you'll receive a gift... which can be interlocked with the gifts from the other communes, to create a board game!

Leave the car in Praz, TAKE THE FREE SUMMER SHUTTLE!

To avoid parking problems in the hamlet of La Tonnaz, which has a parking lot with just 10 spaces, the town council has decided to set up a free shuttle service during the summer school vacations, which will make the following stops every 20 minutes: Parking des Varins - Belles - Village - Tonnaz. For those interested, the Pysae mobile application will enable you to locate the shuttle in real time.
