Val d'Asson Park
Highlight • Forest
Located in the city center, parking is available at Place de l'Hôtel-de-Ville or Rue du Pont-Jarlet. Admission is free and the park is open year-round. The various paths and footbridges are accessible to people with reduced mobility.
The 5 hectares of parkland connect the city center with the Hauts de Montaigu district. Crossed by the Asson River, the park features a variety of vegetation that grows along the stream's banks.
When it was created, the preservation of flora and fauna was a major objective. An eco-grazing area was created there.
