Armed with a scroll, your common sense and your two legs, jump in our brand new adventure !
Okay, but what exactly is Sortilège ?
Sortilège is first and foremost a game, for young and old, to be experienced with family and/or friends, to celebrate a birthday, to come with your class, as a team building activity or even to celebrate a bachelor/bachelorette party.
At the entrance of the park, you will be greeted by a fantastic character, who will explain how the game works: he/she will give you a Quest, which varies according to the season (see the page "The Game").
You form your team (as many as 2, and you are a team!), you then choose your team name and the character will give you a map, a parchment and a backpack with the necessary tools for your adventure. The route is vast, and during your quest, you will have to solve puzzles and win challenges.
As you walk through this urban forest, you will meet other fantastic characters who will talk about the quest through riddles or challenges. Each point on the route that you solve gives you a new clue as to where to go next.
If you win challenges, you will receive a number of beans.
At the end of the journey, you must have a minimum number of beans to receive your letter of nobility. Each letter of nobility contains a character, which will be useful on your next visit.
When you arrive, you are greeted by a fantastic character of the Vale who will test your courage, your intellect and the honesty of your intentions, while you participate in one of the quests.
The Game
For about 3 hours, you will become characters of the story: Barbarian, Goblin, Fairy, Princess... and will face joyful but enigmatic characters along your journey in the Meanders of the Valley, in full ascent of the the Gnomes Slope or even beyond the Stinking Swamps.
A map in hand, you'll have to solve puzzles and overcome challenges to complete your quest.
Each puzzle will lead you to a clue, which will give you a little bit of history and, after some thought, will tell you where to go to find the next clue.
At the end of the quest, depending on your merits, you will receive your letter of nobility !

Knight
From Saturday 18 July to Sunday 13 August and for all the schools days
The kingdom is now affected by an inexplicable drought and by various strange phenomena. These formerly lush, green lands are in danger.
Fortunately, there is a solution and, according to the grimoires, only the harvesting of magic beans by noble and valorous adventurers will allow the inhabitants to plant these beans on these arid lands and make them fertile again, like small green paradises.
Come and cross the mountains, the forests, the obstacles of our lands, in order to harvest these precious beans and thus save our kingdom. We will be eternally grateful.
Prince Theobald
Minstrel
From Saturday 15th April to Sunday 28th May and from Tuesday 15th August to Sunday 17th September.
Have you heard the rumour? No ? Well, it's true, the Minstrels have returned to the kingdom, to bring joy and light to the land and to combat the inexplicable gloom that is affecting the inhabitants of our lands.
We have been through and are going through difficult times.
But we must not give up and continue to believe!
And let us restore joy and harmony! We count on you.
Ulriek the Bard
Mage
From Saturday 3rd June to Sunday 16 July and from Monday 18th September to Sunday 15 October
By Jove! The powerful and magical objects of our great Archimagic have disappeared. Or rather, they seem to be trapped in a secret place.
Without these items, our great mage will lose all his powers, and will no longer be able to protect the kingdom and rule over it in peace and harmony with all the magical beings of our lands.
We need you, each and every one of you, to investigate and rescue the mage by bringing back his sacred objects.
Will you have the courage to become true mages with unlimited powers?
Come and find out!
Nathanaël the Great Mage
Witch
Monday 16 October to Sunday 5 November
Misfortune. Unspeakable catastrophe. Our witch. Our very dear witch has lost her memory. And with that memory, all the potions, remedies, elixirs, and more have vanished... Also gone is all her incredible creativity and eccentric explosions that brought joy and security to the kingdom...
To be honest, no one knows, no one understands what has happened. But one thing is certain: we must find a solution and gather information about the potion that will heal our witch and restore her memory. The same potion of which she has also lost knowledge.
My goodness, what a perilous adventure it will be. Courage, young adventurers!

In the heart of the first Urban Forest of Brussels!
the urban forest
The urban forest fulfills several functions that benefit the environment. True lung of the city, it offers more biodiversity, wild fauna and flora. It regulates soil erosion, acts as an air filter and collects micro-dust from major highways and industrial areas. It also acts as an acoustic shield against ring noise.
The City of Brussels has carried out an ambitious project, at Val du Bois des Béguines, probably the largest green space plantation project of this decade.
val du bois des béguines
In 2013, the Val du Bois des Béguines underwent major transformation work aimed at making it the first urban forest in Brussels.
Little by little, the Val becomes a 40ha forest massif sheltering more than 15,000 trees including 20 species of native trees and 8 species of fruit trees. The species were chosen according to the relief and the nature of the soil in order to promote biodiversity and ensure a balanced development of the flora. There are populations almost extinct in Belgium such as black poplar (replanted en masse) but also fields, meadows, marshes and conservatory orchards.
