The House of Wolves
ORLU , Ariège – Equipement
About
Discover a wildlife park in the heart of the forest, entirely dedicated to wolves.
Welcomed at La maison des loups in the ticketing building, you will have independent access to the animal park located in the forest…
Visits last from 2 hours to a full day.
Over 4 hectares of forest at the heart of the Orlu National Wildlife Reserve, where you can get to know the park’s different packs of twenty-five wolves.
To get to know them better, we advise you to listen to the carers’ comments during feeding sessions (around 2 or 3 feedings a day / see schedule below). You’ll get to know the new family of Mackenzie-type Canadian wolves at a feeding session or in the viewing tunnel.
The visit continues with the mini-farm next to the trout pond.
Young and old alike will be delighted to see the 3 little pigs, sit on the tractor, stroke Mr. Seguin’s goat, meet the rabbits including the Géant des Flandres (largest rabbit), observe the hens, roosters, guinea pigs and baby chicks… A timed track lets you know if you’re running faster than the Wolf!
The Maison des Loups also offers a range of activities in the park:
– an auditorium,
– a storytelling square
– an archaeological workshop,
– a gold-digging experience,
– trails: a botanical trail to discover Pyrenean species, a trail to discover animal tracks in the mountains, an ornithological trail to discover local birds, and a “barefoot” trail to stimulate the senses.
