Parc De Merlet - Reservar una mesa

Reserved our entry slot the day before for arrival, from 12:30 to 13:30. When reserving your time slot, bear in mind the walk from the parking can take up to half an hour.

Pleasant walk though thr woods and meadows, but nothing you couldn't do for free in hundreds of places in the area. We did see a few animals and a close encounter with a lama. Parking was very busy and required 20+ min uphill walk from the first available space.
