The Maison du Parc is a reception and information center for the public, offering tourist documentation, a store, exhibitions, screenings and events linked to the natural and cultural heritage of the Mercantour National Park.
Tende's tourist information office is home to a permanent exhibition, conferences, workshops for adults and children and film screenings on biodiversity.
The exhibition is a fun place to explore through the senses:
- animal footprints
- photographs of flora and fauna
- plant wall made of felt
- tree barks
- recognition of animals through hidden doors
- local minerals and rocks (Tende green stone, granite, etc.)
- thematic maps, the relationship between wolves and herds, natural beauty tips, wool processing, a cross-border linguistic approach... these are just some of the subjects covered.
Park staff and nature specialists regularly organise discussions and meetings with the public.
