How to get to the Fontdouce Adventure Park from Limoges for your seminar?

To reach Parc Aventure de Fontdouce for a seminar from Limoges, simply follow the direction of Angoulême via the N141. The section between Limoges and Angoulême is not entirely dual carriageway: out of the 100 km between the two cities, around 80 km are already two-lane roads in each direction. The remaining 20 km are planned to be upgraded in the coming years, possibly by 2028, which will reduce travel time between Limoges and Angoulême to under one hour. For now, this part of the journey takes approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes. Once in Angoulême, continue on the RN141 towards Cognac and La Rochelle. When you reach Cognac, take the bypass in the direction of Niort and La Rochelle. After leaving Cognac, continue towards Niort until you reach Burie. At the traffic lights in Burie, turn left towards Saintes and Saint-Bris-des-Bois. After leaving Burie, drive for about 3 km. The sign for Parc Aventure de Fontdouce will appear on your right. Turn right and follow the sign; after 200 metres, you will reach the entrance to the parking area of Parc Aventure de Fontdouce and Fontdouce Abbey, located on your right.
Allow approximately 2 hours for the journey from Limoges.

Looking for a quieter route from Limoges? A route with fewer large vehicles that lets you enjoy the scenery? Then take the RN141 out of Limoges and, before Verneuil-sur-Vienne, turn left onto the D2000 towards Séreilhac, then take the D699 towards Gorre, then Cussac, Saint-Mathieu, Marthon, and Angoulême. This route is probably longer from Limoges, but it can help you avoid roadworks on the RN141 and fully enjoy some sightseeing. However, allow about 30 minutes extra to get from Limoges to Angoulême this way.

How to get to the reception area of ​​the Fontdouce Adventure Park from the car park?

Once you’ve parked your car, walk towards the reception area of ​​the Fontdouce Adventure Park, located on the opposite side of the valley. To get there, cross the parking lot towards Fontdouce Abbey, then turn left to cross the road you arrived on. The reception area will then appear on the hillside just before the treetop adventure course. Your seminar can now begin!

Team-building day for our 3 offices on the theme of the Olympics. The Abbey is a very pleasant setting. The management team is welcoming, attentive and caring. We had dinner on the terraces suspended in the forest in a magnificent setting. We could also sleep in their gîtes. My colleagues loved it and have excellent memories of it. I recommend this place.

I thought the meeting room and the dining room were really beautiful. There was nothing to say about the organisation or the activity either.
