Imagine walking through a forest surrounded by imposing trees, listening to the birds' singing, crossing wooden bridges and discovering waterfalls hidden between the mountains.

Inspired by the landscapes of the Oregon coast in the United States, Cedar Trails is a virtual park that impresses by realism and the richness of detail. Located in the Whitemud region of the main continent of Second Life, the destination brings together trails, camping areas, living spaces, shopping establishments and landscapes that look like exits from an American national park.

Created by Lam Erin, the region is a project that has been transformed over time and has already won different versions. On this week's visit, I found a Cherishville completely wrapped in autumn: leaf-covered streets, trees in shades of yellow, orange and red, mountains at the bottom and a persistent rain that completely changes the atmosphere of the place. And this time, the rain doesn't stop the ride.
