Nature team building in Amiens: seminars, team outings, works councils
A seminar day that needs some fresh air, a team outing, something to offer the employees of a works council: Jules of Ecologik, a naturalist guide with a master’s degree in ecology, takes your team by boat into the heart of the Hortillonnages or on foot through Saint-Leu. No host and no team-bonding games: shared time outdoors, in a calm setting, that naturally gets people talking.
Three formats for a team
By boat in the heart of the Hortillonnages: a loop starting from the footbridge at Île au Fagot, aboard an electric boat with a silent motor. The boat has 10 seats (babies carried in arms not counted) and can be booked whole for the team.
On foot through Saint-Leu: a guided tour starting from Place du Don, with the cathedral seen from outside, or extended up to the citadel. Up to 15 people.
As a combined format: the boat in the heart of the Hortillonnages, then the walk to Saint-Leu, for a full half-day. Up to 10 seats.
Seminars: a break outdoors between two sessions
Placed in the early afternoon or at the end of the day, the outing breaks up a seminar indoors without asking the participants to prepare anything. The walking tour starts from Place du Don, within walking distance of the cathedral and the centre of Amiens; the boat starts from the footbridge at Île au Fagot.
The content is agreed with you beforehand: the water, nature in the city, the history of the district, the market gardening of the Hortillonnages. Jules adapts the pace to the team and to the time it has.
A team or department outing
The end of a project, welcoming newcomers, visitors to host: from a short outing to a half-day, the format follows the occasion.
Up to 10 people, the whole boat for the team alone; up to 15, the walking tour; beyond that, several successive departures or a combined format, on a quote.
Works councils: an outing to offer employees
A works council can offer the outing to employees and their families: children welcome, babies carried in arms and dogs free. Requests are made on a quote, and an invoice can be issued on request.
A naturalist guide, not an entertainer
Jules is a naturalist guide with a master’s degree in ecology (Ecologik). The outing is not a classic « team-bonding activity » — it is a time of observation along the banks, the town and the water, in a small group, which naturally sparks conversation.
Combine it with a good local address
The outing can be extended with a meal or an afternoon snack at a good address in Saint-Leu. Drinks, meals or purchases are paid directly to the venue: Ecologik charges for the tour and the guiding, not for the products of the places it recommends.
Request a quote for a team
Please state the number of people, the date or period, the format you have in mind (boat, on foot or combined), any meal and your constraints. Jules replies within 48 working hours with a proposal: format, duration, price and logistics.
