FERME TEMPORAIREMENT - De Bazas au Lac de la Prade

Leaving Bazas, a pleasant footpath offers you the opportunity to discover one of the eight most important natural sites in the Gironde: the Lac de la Prade created in 1981 for irrigation purposes. From the first year of its creation, the ecological interests of the Lac de la Prade were quickly identified: the first nesting site in Aquitaine for a colony of grey herons, a privileged place for rare and protected bird species (crested grebe, osprey, etc.), the existence of a rich and diversified flora and a remarkable fauna.
Embedded in the middle of the hills, in the heart of the Beuve valley, this artificial lake of about fifty hectares offers to the amateur a quiet zone favourable to ornithological observation and the discovery of a variety of fauna and flora species.
