Butterflies and dragonflies: Learn how to observe and identify them.
A ballet of acrobatics and colors
Amid lush vegetation, ponds, and marshes, the wet heathlands around the Varquez Pond are home to a subtle yet exceptional biodiversity. Dragonflies with metallic sheen and butterflies in vibrant colors perform a veritable aerial ballet here throughout the summer. Accompanied by a nature guide, discover their way of life, their life cycle, and their essential role in maintaining the balance of ecosystems. Often overlooked, butterflies and dragonflies are excellent indicators of the quality of natural habitats. This walk will give you the chance to learn how to identify them while discovering the riches of the Erdeven wetlands, in the heart of Brittany’s largest dune field.
Practical Information
Open to all ages: suitable for children.
Recommended gear: walking shoes, weather-appropriate clothing, and binoculars if you have them.
