Family outing: Saleccia Park
Looking for a family activity in Balagne away from the beach?
Why not visit the Parc de Saleccia?
Located just minutes from L’Île-Rousse, this vast 7-hectare garden offers a chance to explore the richness of Mediterranean plant life in a pristine setting.
The Parc de Saleccia was created to showcase the island’s local flora and typical landscapes through a botanical trail.
Spanning several hectares, the park allows visitors to discover a wide variety of Mediterranean species from centuries-old olive trees and aromatic plants to cypresses and oleanders creating a true explosion of color.
Two ponds add a refreshing touch, and you might even spot some koi carp swimming in them.
As you stroll along, you can admire sea views from the amphitheater or gaze out over the garden from the shade of the oak trees.
An ideal outing for enjoying some quiet family time!
Families will particularly appreciate the activities designed to help children discover nature in a playful way.
There is a large playground for younger visitors. Children can also meet farm animals (ducks, chickens, goats, and a donkey) or watch birds and bees at work.
Depending on the season, the park also hosts numerous events focused on biodiversity, gardening, and local traditions.
The Parc de Saleccia also provides a picnic area where you can share a pleasant moment with your children.
Far from the bustle of the beaches and the town, you will appreciate the peaceful atmosphere. It is also the perfect place to savor Corsican specialties under the restaurant’s pergola.
