Le petit peuple du marais

The Department of Saône-et-Loire invites you on a 3-hour walk to explore the biodiversity of the Montceaux-l'Étoile marshes. This site, classified as a Sensitive Natural Area, is home to some remarkable flora and fauna, including butterflies, dragonflies, birds and amphibians.

This visit is a unique opportunity to meet the "little people of the marsh", observe these species in their natural environment and understand their ecological role. You'll also discover the wet meadows and ponds that complete this rich and varied landscape.

Marshes, ponds and wet meadows are extremely rich ecosystems, but they are also fragile. They are home to a unique and often little-known biodiversity that plays a key role in balancing our environment. Yet these environments are under threat from climate change, pollution and certain human activities.

On this walk, you'll discover the species that inhabit our wetlands, the issues involved in preserving them and the measures being taken to protect them. Adapted for disabled visitors. Booking essential.
