Website "down" for supposedly a week, in the middle of August and tourist season, unable to book on the net and no operator authorized to book for less than 20 people to compensate for the failing site (?!). No secondary site set up to book activities: you therefore make the trip with young children to see the door closing in your face "all trains are full". The other activities are reserved for older children (because mountain biking or too long, more than 3 hours). No responsiveness of the management, and no visit possible alone on foot, not even at the Salin de Giraud ..... fortunately a smiling cashier, wiping the disappointments of all these families ... and at 5.30 pm: any other paying visit in the corner impossible due to closing at the end of the day.

Little evening train booked 3 days later, at 7 p.m., for a sunset light and beautiful photographs: no one had specified that the shop would not even be open when we returned (it must be very difficult to find seasonal workers to offer this service also for evening visits during the summer season!). In short: the management does not decide to be pleasant when opening their site.

Pleasant end-of-day light, harvest season well underway so not many salt tables filled .... and little stopping to facilitate photos.
