Description
Set off to discover the natural riches at the Etang de la Pouge, in the heart of the Périgord-Limousin Regional Natural Park, near the picturesque village of Saint Auvent. A quality natural space recognized for its ecological richness, the site is made up of remarkable environments linked to the presence of water - small ponds, amphibian lawns, alder groves, ash groves - each sheltering characteristic fauna and flora (orchis with loose flowers, marsh iris, yellow-bellied bell ringer...). An ornithological observatory allows you to learn to recognize water birds (gray heron, great egret, moorhen, mallard duck, etc.). It is an ideal place for walks for nature lovers!
The Department of Haute-Vienne, owner of the site, participates, with local partners, in its preservation, improvement of quality, as well as the regulation of invasive species.
