Team Building activities tailored to your needs

Everything is possible! We’ll be happy to organise your Team Building outing down to the smallest detail!

Fonth’Lanta

A Team Building activity that’s 100% cohesive !With this collective adventure, you’re at the heart of the team-building activity: teams competing against each other in a friendly competition involving a series of tests combining reflection, skill and a touch of physical effort, over half a day or a whole day. A real challenge to be experienced together through a series of amusing stages for an extraordinary team-building day and some great memories ! The challenges have been designed to cater for the diversity of profiles within a group: they are accessible to all, and allow all members of the group to take part. If you start out with a half-day programme, you can choose the events that best suit the objectives of your outing, making it more sporty or more leisurely. Whatever the case, the difference between the teams on this activity is created by the mutual help and communication between the participants. You are free to create your own teams so that this team-building activity brings together some of your employees or departments who don’t know each other very well. You can also leave it to chance!

Outdoor Laser Game

A dynamic and competitive Team Building! Looking for an activity that combines competition and fun in the great outdoors? The Laser Game could be the perfect option! Create several teams and challenge yourselves to a game of skill and strategy. There are a number of different scenarios to choose from, and our instructors can advise you on the ones best suited to your needs and the size of your group. Games last around 30 minutes, and if you want to extend your teambuilding with a dynamic challenge, you can create a sports tournament by combining the Laser Game with other activities such as the Archery Game or Bubble Football. Find out more about our Laser Game activity

Interactive rallies

An entertaining Team Building ! Set off as a team in search of small geolocated beacons! Each beacon you find allows you to answer a knowledge question on the theme chosen at the start of your team building event. The aim of the game? To be the fastest team to find the beacons, but also the one with the highest number of correct answers. Each member of your team has to observe and orient themselves as best they can to find the markers, but it’s also a test of their ability to answer the questions as best they can. A theme to choose from among these 3 possibilities:

  • The Disney Trail in the forest: it takes you back to your childhood memories!
  • The Forest Adventure Film Trail: featuring the great adventure films of recent years.
  • The forest’s hidden treasures trail: a test of your knowledge of local flora and fauna

Bubble Foot

A stunning Team Building! Are you looking for an activity that will give your staff a real kick? Bubble Foot is guaranteed to provide a lot of laughs! Surrounded by your plastic bubble, you’ll challenge each other in teams to the various games proposed by our entertainers. From a football match to a revisited beret, the aim will always be to shake up your opponents by dabbing them. To vary the pleasures and organise a multi-activity tournament for your Team Building, you can combine several activities by combining Bubble Foot with the Laser Game Outdoor and the Archery Game, allowing your teams to vary the pleasures! Find out more about our Bubble Foot activity.

All-terrain scooters

An original outing for your Team Building! Would you like to offer your staff a totally different experience during a team-building event? Opt for a ride on an all-terrain electric scooter! You’ll be able to immerse yourself in the rolling, wooded countryside around Fontdouce in an original way. And with our perfectly silent scooters, you can enjoy the scenery and the birdsong! Our scooters are limited to 25 km/h, so you don’t have to worry about safety! What’s more, the routes have been designed to allow you to use little-travelled paths in complete safety. And how do you get organised? The route is downloaded onto the mobile phones of a number of participants using a QR code to be scanned: 2 or 3 scouts will be enough! We’ll explain how the scooters work and let you familiarise yourself around the reception area. Once the whole group is ready, all you have to do is follow the itinerary. The unspoilt surroundings of Fontdouce are very pleasant and varied, and there are several themes to choose from:

  • The vineyard trail: a 1-hour walk through the Cognac vineyards, along a flat trail suitable for beginners.
  • Escapade between woods and valleys: a 1.5-hour walk between pretty views over the valleys and surrounding forest estates. A more sporting route with some great discoveries and a few thrills!
  • The 13 fountains trail: a 2-hour walk around the small heritage sites of the Charente region, including wash-houses, fountains, ovens and small hamlets. The route is relatively flat and accessible to all.

Visit the abbey

A cultural Team Building! If you’d like to offer your employees a cultural activity and give them a fascinating insight into their heritage, we strongly recommend that you opt for a guided tour of Fontdouce Abbey: it takes you on a journey through the history of a site founded over 900 years ago and bought back during the Revolution by local farmers whose descendants still own it. The team at the Abbey will be delighted to give you all the information you need about this site steeped in history. There are several types of visit, depending on the nature of your teambuilding activity:

  • The simple guided tour
  • A convivial guided tour (led by one of the owners and ending with an aperitif)
  • The unusual guided tour (which takes you through all the little nooks and crannies of Fontdouce Abbey; a word of advice: bring waterproof boots!)
  • A guided tour along the water (a trip up the Fontaine Douce to see the site through its natural surroundings).

Allow around 1 hours for a full guided tour. Find out more about our activity Guided tour of Fontdouce Abbey

Archery Game

Team Building with skill ! Show off your archery skills to your whole team! With the Archery Game, you can challenge yourselves to games of precision and speed. There are several scenarios to choose from, allowing you to test your skill at hitting your opponents safely, or to score as many points as possible by aiming at fixed targets. Our entertainers will guide you throughout your 30-minute game. You can take advantage of the exceptional natural setting at Fontdouce to play together in the fresh air. So is there a Robin Hood among you? If you’d like to organise a real sports tournament as part of your teambuilding activity, we recommend combining the Archery Game with our other team activities, such as Bubble foot or the Outdoor Laser Game, for guaranteed laughter and fun! Find out more about our Archery Game activity.

Tree climbing

A memorable and rejuvenating Team Building!

To strengthen the bonds between your teams, what could be better than surpassing yourself together during a cohesive outing?

Accrobranche is the perfect activity if you want to offer an outing combining self-improvement and mutual assistance: faced with this type of challenge, your colleagues encourage and help each other to complete the various workshops on the high-altitude courses.

In Fontdouce, we offer 10 treetop courses for adults divided between the easiest at 2m in height and the most difficult at 15m: the easy courses allow your less comfortable colleagues to discover this activity in complete tranquility; those looking for a few thrills can try their hand on our 4 intermediate courses while the more experienced will set off on the most difficult and highest courses!

This is the perfect opportunity to encourage mutual aid and strengthen ties. And to finish your team building outing, we give you free access to our two giant zip lines of 200 meters each. Your employees will remember this moment for the rest of their lives!

Get away from the office and opt for a green seminar! Away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, the natural surroundings of Fontdouce are much appreciated for their calm and authenticity: the Fontdouce valley, surrounded by woods and vineyards and crossed by the Fontaine Douce, will win over all your colleagues with its gentle, aesthetic atmosphere for your team building event.

Frequently asked questions about our team building offers

At Fontdouce, the wide range of activities on offer means we can cater for groups of all sizes. What really counts is your choice of activities and the services you expect. Whatever the case, by combining our 12 activities, we are able to accommodate very large groups of up to 200 people, keeping all the participants busy throughout the day with Team Building activities that suit them.

Yes, at Fontdouce we have Team Building activities to suit all profiles. From thrilling activities to cultural outings, there’s something for everyone. Some activities, such as L’Odyssée du Totem de Fontdouce, have been specially designed to meet the needs of companies and the wide range of profiles within professional groups. The activities are modular and accessible to all. Everyone is free to step aside for 5 minutes if one of the events seems too complicated.  

Yes, in the event of rain during your Team Building outing, we inevitably have a plan B. If you’ve booked a meal in the forest and a storm is forecast, we’ll set up lunch in one of the rooms at the Abbey. As far as the activities are concerned, some of them can easily be done in light rain. In the event of a storm, however, we’ll opt for an activity within the walls of Fontdouce Abbey. If the weather is really catastrophic just before your event, we’ll be happy to listen if you prefer to cancel or postpone it. We have reliable weather applications and will also be able to advise you.

We can welcome companies for a seminar or team-building event any day of the year, and we can adapt our timetables to suit your programme.

To make the most of Fontdouce’s natural setting, we strongly advise you to plan your outing for the summer months. In spring or late summer, or even early autumn, team-building events can be planned without difficulty, to ensure that the weather is relatively mild.
