Fête Nature – Chanteraines Urban

The Parc des Chanteraines hosts a week of free animations including transhumance walks and nocturnal amphibian observations in Hauts-de-Seine. Reflecting the historical soul of this park was a massive industrial wasteland that has been transformed into one of the largest green spaces in the region. The event highlights the modern identity of the department as a leader in urban ecology and social inclusion through transformative nature projects. Visitors can participate in soil discovery workshops and enjoy guided walks through the park’s varied wetlands and agricultural demonstration zones. This initiative has a significant social impact by connecting urban families with the agricultural and biological cycles of the regional territory. For urban researchers it provides a vital example of the successful integration of rural activities like transhumance into a dense city. The festival ensures the legacy of the park as a ‘green lung’ remains strong for the community and future urban biodiversity.
