Villeneuve-sous-Dammartin (77) – The largest site for the repurposing of excavated soil in Ile-de-France opened its doors to the general public for the first time. Thanks to a fun and educational escape game designed for families as well as lovers of landscapes and discovery walks, the public will be able to discover how soil from construction sites is received and then reused on site to create new natural spaces and farmland.
This open-air escape game, which covers a 3 km course, will also be an opportunity to admire the Eye from the Sky, a monumental 400-meter-long work of land art designed by Antoine Grumbach.
