The Bonnefont Marsh
The Marais de Bonnefont Regional Nature Reserve, located in the commune of Mayrinhac-Lentour, less than 30 minutes from the campsite, is a 42-hectare protected natural area. Its ecological diversity and rich biodiversity make it an ideal setting for discovering and preserving wetlands.
🌾A natural gem in the heart of the Barousse valley
A former glacial lake transformed into a wetland, this marsh is now a magical place where nature reigns supreme. Here you’ll find rare plants (even carnivorous ones!), birds, frogs, dragonflies… a veritable living world to be observed discreetly.
A wooden path winds its way through reed beds and wet meadows, inviting young and old alike to enjoy an accessible and rewarding stroll. Interpretation panels, observatories and special events help visitors to better understand the richness and fragility of this remarkable ecosystem, while enjoying the calm and beauty of the site.
