Presentation

A 3-day geology mini-course this summer in Chamrousse, specially adapted for children: search for minerals, discover an extinct volcano, observe rocks, experiment with the water cycle... Supervised by the Centre de Géologie de l'Oisans - Alpes.

The activities on offer will allow us to experiment and learn about the workings of our planet, while having fun at the same time. Over the three days, we'll also learn how to read a map, find our way in the mountains and observe the animals and plants around us.
