The Domaine des Oiseaux

MAZERES , Ariège – Equipement

About

.Discover this park and its lake with free access, a must in Ariège! The Domaine des Oiseaux is unique in the Midi Pyrenees.

This 70-hectare park is a migratory stopover and a privileged breeding ground for ornithological fauna.

A must-see stopover, this park offers you the opportunity to discover an exceptional quantity and diversity of ornithological fauna, as well as numerous indigenous wetland animals, in total freedom, in all seasons.
The park covers 100 hectares, including 30 hectares of water, and is both an exceptional stopover for migratory birds flying over the region and a privileged biotope for the reproduction of indigenous ornithological and terrestrial species.
Today, there are nearly 235 species, a figure that is steadily increasing, which you can discover from the paths along the three lakes of the estate or from the projection room, installed at the back of the “Tool Barn”, where the frolicking of all the animals captured by the cameras placed in the most favourable places are projected in real time, as well as in delayed and close-up shots. The estate is a place of life that evolves with the rhythm of time and the seasons.
In the Tool Barn you can discover a large number of objects that our ancestors used in the past. Divided into five parts: The forge, the ploughing, the harvest, the farmyard and the grape harvest, you will be able to see these tools and learn about, or remember, the different ways of life at the time.

Other facilities and services offered on site:
– Fishing facilities, pontoons for disabled people.
– Guided tours for groups of 6 people or more.
Unaccompanied tours at all times.
Guided tours with an ornithological specialist are available for a fee upon reservation.
