L’Espace Naturel Sensible : « Marais boisé du Val d’Auron »

This site is an area made up of natural and artificial environments that are closely linked to the creation of the Val d'Auron water body in the 1970s. This area has both an alkaline marshland and an artificial island within the lake. The biological interest of the site is based on this diversity of habitats with, on the one hand, the body of water which, during migration and the winter period, hosts a large and diversified avifauna (anatidae, larids), as well as a heronry within the island, and, on the other hand, the alkaline low-marsh which presents rare floral processions for the Department.
