Description
Carrière musée de Channay sur Lathan, parking ombragé, calme, environnement de verdure pour cette ancienne exploitation des faluns de touraine, panneaux explicatifs sur la mer des faluns disparue il y a 15 millions d’années.
The Camper’s take
Former falun quarry converted into an open-air geology museum with a large shaded, level parking area. Educational trail about the ancient tropical sea that covered the region. Very peaceful and green setting with picnic tables. Well-maintained site with minimal nighttime traffic despite a nearby road. No services (water, electricity, waste facilities).
