Campus walks

Pierre Corajoud has designed five themed walks to (re)discover the campus. The starting point for the walks is the Napoleon oak tree at the far end of the Unithèque building.


 

The five walks

The walks, which need to be organised by you, feature eight points of interest, arranged by theme, and run along five routes. The starting point for all the walks is the Napoleon oak tree, at the far end of the Unithèque building.

Some of the walks, which pass above the Unithèque, are no longer possible at the moment. Work to extend the Unithèque building means that the path on the edge of the forest is closed until the work is completed.
