Original tour of the grounds
and the canal

The Château de Cheverny stands over large lawns and magnificent flowerbeds, inspired by the original plans. This setting is extended by the landscaped park with rows of majestic trees.

Since 1997, an original tour has been on offer featuring the woodland area of the park. The idea is not to contemplate the individual beauty of each tree, but to admire a succession of planted areas.

Visitors take a seat on board our electric cars and travel in almost perfect silence down the alley stretching for over 700m and lined with hundred-year-old cedar trees. Visitors are likely to spot one of the many deer that live in this part of the grounds. This trip is nothing but authentic.

After passing the Corsican and Scots pine plantations, the Douglas firs and Sequoias groves, it’s time to jump onboard the electrically propelled boats on the canal which crosses the park. Here, visitors remain transfixed as they approach the bald cypress trees whose roots are underwater and see the trail left by ducks are they fly off.

Afterwards, it is sadly time to return to “civilisation”…
