Discover the Brenne Nature Park wildlife with a passionate nature guide. A wetland of international importance, the Brenne is home to an exceptional wealth of flora and fauna. The mosaic of landscapes provide the right living conditions to a wide variety of bird species which find refuge and food here. Your naturalist guide will give you the keys to understanding this area with passion.
Day 1: settling in and meeting the birds of Brenne
We selected two accommodations with the ‘Valeurs Parc naturel régional de la Brenne’ label to enhance your immersion in nature. Your hosts will offer you a cosy nest and will share with you their passion for the Brenne Regional Nature Park. Your hosts' good knowledge of the area make them excellent ambassadors able to give you precise high-quality advice according to your expectations.
End afternoon, your guide will meet you at your accommodation and will lead you during a 2 to 3 hours nature tour. You will discover the most emblematic birds of Brenne. Your guide will help you to identify the different species and their behaviour. Back at your B&B, you will enjoy dinner based on local produce (with your guide if you wish so).
Day 2 : a full day out in nature
Your guide will pick you up for another nature tour. In the morning, you will have plenty of time with your guide to learn more about the species of Brenne and to continue discovering its exceptional biodiversity.
You will enjoy your lunch at the Maison du Parc restaurant, located in the heart of the typical hamlet called Le Bouchet, dominated by its castle. After a delicious meal based on local specialities, you can continue your Brenne experience going hiking on one of our 60 hiking trails. Our travel consultants in La Maison du Parc will be delighted to advise you on this matter. You could also choose to visit the Bouchet castle (100m away) which offers the best view in Brenne from its terrace.
Day 3: birdwatching hike on your own
Suggested hike: "Encounter with the Brenne landscapes"
This walking trail is a veritable hymn to the Brenne. On this 12km route, starting from the Etang du Blizon, you'll pass through a breathtaking variety of landscapes, including ponds, natural meadows, moorland and wet woods. These unique ecosystems are home to a particularly rich variety of flora and fauna, making it an ideal place for birdwatching. From the same departure spot, you will find ‘In the footsteps of the Brenne’ discovery trail (1.6 km) with its hides, footbridges and single footpaths. You could also decide to go back to some spots you have discovered and most appreciated during the nature tours. The Nature Parc has more than 15 hides in a 20km perimeter. They are open everyday, all year round, with free access.
