What you need to know
- Hunts split by age, so toddlers get the vegetable garden while older kids take the woods
- Book ahead online, tickets go on sale before Easter and it is one of the busiest hunts around Paris
- A big estate on foot, 33 hectares of gardens, so bring a carrier or sturdy stroller for the youngest
About
Each Easter, the team at Vaux-le-Vicomte hides thousands of chocolates across the 17th-century château's gardens and woods. Separate hunts run at the same time for different age groups, so the youngest search a calm patch of the vegetable garden while older kids range through the woods. Every participant goes home with chocolate. Between hunts there are carriage rides and craft activities. It suits families happy to walk a big estate.
