Argonne Discovery Park — Attraction in Vouziers

Huge park with a marketing success. Can be done in 2 hours. Out of all those animals I have seen only the wolves and the birds (during the presentations). No other animals. The birds presentation was impressive. The farm is ok.

They have a fantastic playground for school age kids though. Highly recommend.

Just a little warning, as the area is preserved in a very natural way, there are tons of insects...

Play areas for children. Gift shop at entrance. Toilets etc at entrance and in the Park. Probably slippery underfoot in wet weather as much of yhe walking is on compressed soil. Lots of benches, undercover seating etc. Really excellent value (& we've stayed overnight in the carpark - did get...

A really great day out, lots to see and do. The restaurant was wonderful, no vegetarian option but when I asked I was accomodated perfectly. We were entertained by a talk on bats and nocturnal animals, bird of prey display, talk on poultry and a talk while the wolves were being fed. There is a large play area for the children but because the talks and films are on within half an hour of each other in the afternoon it is better to come before lunch so that you can experience everything. Displays are in French and English and animations around the farm animal area are also in Dutch. Talks are...
