"Les Villages Nature" is a unique project by Euro Disney SCA and Pierre et Vacances.  Spread over 4 themed "villages" the area will consist out of vacation houses for rent or sale, hotels, apartments and cabins. 

Ecology will be one of the key elements: from protecting the existing forests and country side to using green energy.

All the land needed for the development will be acquired in addition to the already existing Disney's Davy Crockett Ranch.

The 4 themed villages:

» Water: The first village will be themed to a harbour town with lots of waterbased activities, including a geothermical heated pool.

» Earth: The second village is an homage to the French countryside and agriculture.  Activities include craft courses, farm animals and workshops around ecology.

» Sport: All kind of sports can be practiced in the third village: golf, tennis, horseback riding, climbing, cycling, ...  But also relaxtion and health centres will find their spot here.

» Forest: The Forest Village will be no other then Disney's Davy Crocket Ranch.  Besides the refurbished cabins, the area will also house a new lodging possibility: high up in the trees!  It will most likely be the only area in Villages Nature operated by Disney.

The first phase of the plan (Water & Forest villages) is expected to open in 2010.

Important: The Villages Nature project is not the third theme park.

I thought it was a good idea from the beginning and having seen quite some conept art I think it will look great, only hope it's not going to be 'Too much' of the same... then again Euro Disney SCA. in combination with Pierre et Vacances, it can only come out well! Theming-wise aswell as finishing and quality.  :)

a question that may have been asked before:

where will these parks be located (exclude the forest park obviously!)
enjoy yourself, it\'s later than you think!

It will all be build behind Davy Crocket Ranch, as you can see on the the overview concept art.  It will be 520 ha big and stretch over 3 towns: Bailly-Romainvilliers, Coutevroult and Villeneuve-le-Comt.

Wow, that sounds great :)! Especially for a nature-addict like me ;)!

So will it also be possible to stay there at an hotel like at one of the Disney hotels? Or like the Selected hotels?

It looks amazing, I wonder if the water part will connect to any of the parks/other hotels via canals?   When we stayed in WDW at Port Orleans we could get a water taxi to Downtown Disney and it was great. Some of the others hotels connect via a lake.  A really nice touch.

No, but an environmental friendly transportation system is considered to connect the parks with les Villages and Val d'Europe.

After reading the title, I thought this was just going to be a garden with some bushes and pretty flowers, but obviously it's going to be a lot more than that! Sounds great :D
