Good to know
- Reservation
- The estate is free to enter; the swimming area requires paid admission and booking is advised in high season, as it is for the hoist system at the swimming pond.
- Busy and quiet times
- In July and August and on warm weekends the swimming pond is very busy; a walk in the wider estate remains quiet even then.
- Things to note
- The main walking and cycling paths are fully paved; older side paths in the woods are not always barrier-free.
- Visit tip
- Ask at the swimming pond about the hoist system for adapted access to the water; the adapted picnic tables along the paths are ideal for a family day.
