Just a Few

We saw a few of these but I wonder if they've generally been removed because if there are 600+ then I must have been looking in the wrong direction

What a nice surprise we had when we walked from our hotel to the old town one evening and saw this amazing light and sound show surrounding some spectacular drift wood sculptures. The sculptures were all over the town but there was a lovely collection...More

Amazing sculptures

The sculptures are all hand made from wood into people, animals, etc. Wonderful backdrop for photoshoot. Best to do in the morning when less crowded.

Very Different

We were very happy to find this fabulous attraction - it is fantastic how they have made these sculptures out of wood - the lighting and the music make the mood special for the Christmas season - great for children and adults alike.

DO NOT MISS Evian's 650, yes, 650(!!) driftwood "creations/creatures" - better than Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings!

We happened to be in Evian the day before the opening of the "driftwood" sculpture village (Le Fabuleux Village) (open December 9 2016 to January 8 2017) but most of the sculptures were already on display, so wanted to enter this quickly on Tripadvisor. ....More
