Sights & Sites

Come and see bison, deer, horses, boars and hawks roaming on 700 hectares of land, just one hour from the French Riviera

A large animal reserve where over 500 native European breeds can be seen in their natural surroundings.

Enjoy guided walking safari tours, horse drawn wagon rides, or even see the animals at dawn and dusk on an overnight stay in the reserve's on-site accommodation. The reserve also carries out important ecological work with rare species, which you can learn more about at the centre.

Open to the public from 1 March to the first weekend of January. To respect the high ecological standards established by the scientific team, the number of daily visitors is limited and guided visits are preferably booked in advance. Guided safaris start at around 20€, with discount prices for teenagers and children.
