Verger Champêtre - Gîte & compagnie

Published on Jun 19, 2019

What to do this weekend – June 21-23

On the menu this weekend – a yoga session surrounded by animals, summer festivities in the great outdoors, a donkey farm and the work of talented, creative artists. Unique Townships’ attractions, all rolled into one over a couple of days!

Relax in the company of stress-reducing alpacas!


Yoganimo (« yoga and animals » get it?) is the name of a new activity being staged this Saturday for the first time at Verger Champêtre - gîte & compagnie - a family farm and home to a multitude of interesting creatures. Participants will be guided through the yoga movements by professor emeritus Stéphanie Kitembo in a stress-reducing session that could best be described as a blend of relaxation and animal therapy.
