Tips

🕊️ 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒓

May 23, 2021

Northern access to the old sand and gravel mines that created the large lakes today teeming with nature and wildlife. The site of the Foraine d'Authie is made up of a series of bodies of water resulting from the former exploitation of glacial pebble deposits. This former quarry, in the process of being recolonized by the natural environment, has been the subject of recent developments for ornithological purposes (islets, mudflats, etc.), associated with the grazing of the meadows. These allow a large public to enjoy the discovery of the site and to admire the Spoonbills, Cormorants, Mediterranean Gulls, Avocets, Mergansers, etc., which have repopulated this natural space.
