Réserve Naturelle de Saint-Denis-du-Payré
La Réserve Naturelle accueille sur ses prairies humides protégées environ 120 espèces d'oiseaux sauvages par an. Ils trouvent sur place les conditions naturelles indispensables à leur survie. Venez les découvrir au travers d'une visite qui débutera à la Maison de la Réserve dans le village (diaporama, muséographie sur les zones humides, belvédère).
Vous pourrez ensuite vous rendre sur le site où un sentier sur pilotis vous mènera à l'observatoire équipé de longues-vues et de sièges. Un guide naturaliste vous y attendra (accès aux personnes à mobilité réduite).
