Archyfun archery battle 
PixabayIn the Houdanais region, outdoor activities are omnipresent: hiking, bike rides, horse riding… You will inevitably find a course at your level, so that all generations can enjoy our little bubble of nature together!
This “outdoor” offer complements perfectly with other outings such as a trip to the educational farm Malowe Nature, a game of fishing in the local ponds or rivers, or even more unusual, a game of Archery Battle (arrow fight) or saber fight in the forest, to face your friends or family in life-size games ( upon reservation for a group of more than 8 people)!
Another activity that can quickly turn into a competition: bowling! Meet at the Lys Bowl in Houdan for a series of bowling games, but what not: billiards, arcade games, table football and darts will add to the general good mood of this group outing!
Finally, an essential place for a little dip or a breaststroke: the Hodellia Aquaforme Center in Houdan. Between play areas, well-being or fitness areas... everyone will find what they are looking for!
Would you like to explore the Houdanese villages and explore them in a fun and informative way? Thanks to our game booklets, explore Houdan, Montchauvet, Orgerus and Septeuil as a family and discover the unusual curiosities and nooks and crannies hidden there!
Accompanied by the official mascot of the Tourist Office, the Pirouette squirrel, follow the steps and complete these treasure hunts combining walks, challenges and local stories.
Once the adventure has been completed or the children are too tired, we will meet you at the Tourist Office or at one of our partner merchants or town halls, to collect a well-deserved reward: one of the four collectible badges bearing the image of Pirouette!
For those who prefer new technologies to good old paper, you will not be left out. Two applications are available in the region to satisfy the adventurous or investigative side that lies dormant in you!
With the Geocaching application, the goal is simple: find small boxes called “caches” hidden throughout the Houdanese territory thanks to geolocation! To unearth the precious keys, be on the lookout, search every corner, turn over every stone, put your deductive skills to the test and above all stay calm, your patience will most certainly be rewarded!
The “Eva, the weavers of time” application, carried out by the Departmental archives, transports you to a futuristic universe where “time pirates” have fun modifying pieces of history. They falsify documents, erase traces, spread false information to serve their interests. The Time Weavers Agency therefore needs your help to restore the truth about our local heritage! In Houdan and more widely in Yvelines, you will have several steps to complete by going to the different places in “danger”. Once there, the geolocated application triggers the questions and puzzles to solve for you to complete your mission! Will you be able to rise to the occasion?
Finally, the last reflex to adopt to find new ideas for activities: regularly consult the agenda of outings in Pays Houdanais! Throughout the year, numerous workshops, activities and thematic events are offered to you and allow you to vary the experiences: shows, creative leisure activities, nature outings, escape games, treasure hunts... There is something for everyone. !
