Grange Nature

Reviewed By Cambridge77 - Cambridge, United Kingdom

La Grange Nature is a center to raise awareness and education about nature. There is ample parking. It is is next to a ‘Reserve Naturelle des Étangs de Romelaere’, with walks amongst marshes with ponds and rivers/canals. In July it was full of vegetation and lots of wildlife. The walks are easy as they are on wood boards. There is large hut to observe: cormorans, grebes, aigrettes, ducks, with drawings and names of birds. This reserve also has bitterns! (although we could not see one then). There is a river to cross on a ferry that one pulls across the river by a chain. It is reasonably easy to do for an adult or teenager. Lots of explanations on the environment. There are several circuits, from 1.2 to 4 km, some of which accessible for all. Nice place to spend time at.

Reserve Naturelle Dune Marchand

Reviewed By Mb7400 - London, United Kingdom

A work colleague had to manually ‘force’ me to come here, prior to a work meeting ‘so as to exorcise a bad experience with a French lady’, last year. Fair play to him - it worked. A pleasant early morning jog/run along the beach which is unspoiled and has a natural essence to it. Very cold, but, of course the air is ‘sea fresh’. Parking is good and in close proximity. Well worth a visit, tbh.
