L'Arche des Crétillons in Chalais

The place is really nice. Children (and adults) enjoy moving freely among the animals and being able to give them food. As a bonus, visitors benefit from the view of the Rhône plain. It is possible to eat very pleasantly on site.

Very good meal, very good welcome

Superb farm, well renovated. Always full of family. Nice refreshment bar and not too expensive.

Came several times given the different routes and no problems. This weekend, on the other hand, I came across a member of the staff who was bitter about a bottle in the bag (despite one drink)

Too great, easy access, super friendly staff, we see that the animals are well treated. The children loved it and what's more, it's a more than affordable outing for all wallets.

Magnificent!!! We come often and we love it, the children are always delighted and so are we!

Very pretty I celebrated my daughter's birthday at the farm and she loved it thank you again to all the staff

Ideal outing to enjoy a bite to eat outdoors with children

Great time with the children, the animals are very well looked after, everything is clean, very pleasant environment.

Place to absolutely do with the family. Great setting and very good food!

Great place for children competent and friendly staff to recommend

Great place for children between 0 and 4 years old. The perfect view with a small animal ambience for small Sunday trips. Entry is free, but the restaurant requires consumption of at least 1 drink.

Very clean animal pastures and self service restaurant.

I really liked the concept, the only thing that confused me was not seeing water on any of the animals, and on top of that the day we went to visit it was really hot

Great place for little ones, full of different kinds of animals and very well looked after

Small farm, beautiful enclosures, with large space for animals, to visit with children. Buy animal food, children will be delighted to feed them. Reasonable price and very friendly staff. Very good and well-stocked on-the-go food.

Magnificent place, where you can come with friends, family or even on a school walk. A wide choice of animals and educational activities for everyone Very friendly staff No prices apart from consumption on site, too great!

Great place for children to discover the farm and animals.

Too bad for certain species to be locked in cages! Frustrating I think for the birds! Otherwise, very nice place.

Wonderful place to go with the grandchildren

Magnificent farm where you can see a wide variety of animals up close in an ideal setting. The children were delighted and so were the parents. The refreshment bar offers a choice of drinks and snacks at very reasonable prices. We'll come back.

Great place for small children. Well done. Always happy when we are in Valais.

Little corner of paradise to see very friendly animals

For a family trip with small children, it's great. Children can run around themselves. Food and drinks are moderately priced.

Short stop after having traveled the Bisse du Ricard. Mini farm zoo with welcoming refreshment bar and smiling staff! Enjoy local consumption with friendly prices.

A magical setting where little ones have fun in complete safety with the animals. Top quality refreshment bar. I can only advise him

Nice place to see the farm animals. The view of the valley is very beautiful. Pleasant to spend some time with children. High chairs available.

The people working are welcoming and super friendly, we loved it and we will come back

Nice place A great meal in quality and quantity Nice game for children

Magnificent welcome and cuisine

I was very well received, the service is impeccable, accompanied by extreme kindness. My little Edgar Love this unmissable place for children, thank you very much 🖒

Nice walk, children can feed the animals. Truly a magnificent place!

Nice place to spend some time as a family with young children. Friendly and very welcoming staff. Children are more than welcome. Possibility of buying food to give to the many animals.

Always a nice place, great encounters!

Magnificent place, very well maintained and large. A great family day much appreciated by children (and adults)!

The assurance of a successful day for children (and adults). Top-notch welcome, lots of games for children, little local snack cuisine. We come back regularly!

Magical place where children can see real animals and magnificent birds much appreciated by adults. To be renewed when restaurants open

Always on top Thank you Zappellaz

We go there several times a year! Always a great time spent with the children... Very friendly welcome!

The kids love it! The view of the plain and the spectacle of the paragliders landing is exceptional. The short walk up and back is ideal for clearing your conscience after overindulging in the delicacies from the refreshment bar. We will return there, for sure.

Very spacious and safe for children. Very warm welcome at the refreshment bar.

Super simple, to do with children.

Friendly, quiet, super pleasant. Adorable animals and a refreshment bar with a good choice Nice team

Great time to spend with family with lots of animals to discover with our children with the possibility of buying food for the animals with refreshment bar and snacks

Very nice environment... ideal for children. Relaxing

Great setting, super good and well served dishes, friendly staff, great for a family day!

Beautiful area. Children can give small bags of pellets (3.-) to the animals and they love them! Very well maintained estate, refreshment bar with very good dishes at affordable prices. An excellent discovery!

Wonderful and magical place for families and children, good food and very attractive prices, very warm welcome

Family friendly, ideal for children, warm welcome

From the agrotourism farm, an educational stopover for young and old, with the possibility of catering with very delicious farm products. Fans will also find opportunities to make bulk purchases. Good welcome.

Great place for children and adults. You can have a drink or eat while the children play without risk. Discovery of animals!

Great place for adults and children Super welcoming and friendly refreshment bar I recommend to families

Great place. To combine with a walk on the Bisse de Riccard

Small pleasant walk with the possibility of eating on site, animals, sunny atmosphere... everything is there 👌🌞🇨🇭

Beautiful place, my children loved it and so did we, very nice people, we eat very well, and the children love feeding the animals :-) the only thing I can make a small remark about is the arrival, already Google didn't tell me well at the beginning but once in the parking lot 👍 the sign that says good visit on the left and family on the right, we went to the left and found the right path after asking 😉 simpler if it was better indicated for the not very gifted like me 😁. But o. In any case I advise you to go there.....

Superb place, we loved the welcome, my 3 year old daughter didn't want to leave, between the park, and the animals they were in heaven. They sell excellent quality products, I recommend the serrac and dry sausages, delicious. Don't hesitate, go for it.

Great place for families and nothing to say about the incredibly kind owners, we love it 👍👌😉😘😘😘😘😘🇨🇭

Pleasant moments with young children, animals, games and company, nice walk

Ideal place for a family outing or even a larger group. Walk to discover various farm animals and also the very beautiful Bisse Ricard.

Family atmosphere and an idyllic place to spend time with the family. Welcome to the best!!! And the homemade cream pie is a treat!!!!

A family outing with small children on Sunday turns into a big surprise. From Chippis drive towards Vercorin. Right at the first big clearing (curve) there is enough parking space on the right side of the road. Now walk west for about 5 minutes towards the facility. Then it will begin with your little companions. Hearty animals are no longer possible. The focus is on our regional animal species. The park is in top condition in 2019. Of course, it also has a buvette with culinary specialties and drinks from the region. Finally, just a big shout out and thank you to the people who created this paradise.

Magnificent, truly magnificent places for young and old

Warm place, close to nature. Excellent refreshment bar, regional products on sale. Ideal setting for children with beautiful panoramic views. Absolutely worth visiting!

Nice and interesting relaxing place to go with children.

Nice place where you can buy small bags of food to give to the animals

A great place for a walk with children, ending with an excellent and simple meal

Educational farm with good restaurant. Various farm animal birds

My grandchildren, 8 and 6 years old, really liked this place... lots of space for animals...the number of species and explanatory panels. ...

For families the place is great. The main interest is not to have a gastro but to see your children play and caress animals.

Superb place for a walk with the family.

very nice place for family lunch

What can I say other than it's a paradise. For children there is everything, games, animals, activities. Quiet without being far from the plain. The meals are delicious, and the prices are more than reasonable. And then the staff, nothing to complain about, they are warm, welcoming and every other compliment you could give.

Very good for a family outing to see the animals or to quench your thirst by doing the Bisse du Riccard

The farm has visibly grown compared to my visit seven years ago. It is now more modern and there are more animals to see. You can buy products from the farm. Delicious. 😎 Consuming and purchasing the products counts as entry. Suitable for small children.

amazing place it is a farm and a zoo at the same time

Beautiful location and very friendly staff

Great walk especially with children

Magnificent place for children and parents. The animals are accessible to touch or observe up close. The refreshment bar is very well stocked and we are served with a smile. Be careful when the weather is nice, it's very busy, especially on weekends!

Ideal for an outing with children.... learn and respect our animals in a green setting on the farm

Nice place for a family stroll. Beautiful view of the valley and farm animals.

Atmosphere, conviviality are there.

Welcoming! Close to animals, nice canteen available and very friendly staff

Exceptional setting with a view of the Rhône valley. Very good food. Nice for children and their parents.

Wonderful place!!! Lots of accessible animals (food on sale) Refreshment bar with varied menu and reasonable prices... Very nice treasure hunt A beautiful place to discover without delay.

A great idea for a family outing. (I will not go with a baby in a stroller). Possibility of parking the car in Chalais (cable car) and following the marked route. The food is very tasty there. They can accommodate large groups. Attention ! Check the opening days before going up!

Educational farm in a quiet and relaxing location with a magnificent terrace. Animals, exhibitions and entertainment.

To have a good time with the children.

A must see at all costs! Revitalizing outing! Anne Pugin
