How to get to Fontdouce Adventure Park from La Rochelle to take part in your team building event?

The most direct and simplest way to get from La Rochelle to Fontdouce Adventure Park for your team building event is to continue past Rochefort on the A837 motorway to Saintes. Once in Saintes, head towards Angoulême and Cognac, bypassing Saintes via the ring road. After leaving the Saintes ring road, from the Cognac road, head towards La Chapelle des Pots, which you will pass through, then St Bris des Bois-Les Bujoliers, which you will also pass through. Head towards Burie and about 3 km after leaving St Bris des Bois-Les Bujoliers, you will see the sign for Fontdouce Adventure Park on your left. Follow the sign, take a small road, continue for 200 metres and you will find the Fontdouce Adventure Park car park on your right. Allow about 1 hour and 15 minutes to get there from La Rochelle via this route.

Would you prefer not to take the motorway to come to your team building event in Fontdouce from La Rochelle? Do you prefer quieter roads and want to avoid paying tolls on your way from La Rochelle? In that case, before joining the motorway at Rochefort, head towards Tonnay-Charente, then Lussant, and continue to St Jean d’Angély. At St Jean d’Angély, head towards Saintes and Cognac, then at St Hilaire de Villefranche, turn left towards Cognac. After a few kilometres, you will enter the village of Brizambourg, and in the centre of the village, turn right towards St Bris des Bois. Once in St Bris des Bois, turn left towards Burie and continue for 3 km; you will then see a sign for the Fontdouce Adventure Park on your left. Continue for 200 m and you will see the Fontdouce Adventure Park car park on your right.

How to reach the Fontdouce Adventure Park reception from the Fontdouce Abbey car park

The car park is located above Fontdouce Abbey. Once parked, head towards the Fontdouce Adventure Park reception area located on the opposite side of the valley: to do this, cross the car park 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 tree-top adventure park.

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.
