A Remarkable Ecological Treasure

The Havré Forest is home to an extraordinary diversity of flora and fauna. Oaks, beeches, ashes, and hornbeams create a varied forest landscape, where each season reveals its unique colors and scents. The undergrowth shelters a multitude of wild plants, while ponds and wetlands provide refuge for numerous birds, amphibians, and small mammals.


A Site Steeped in History

A former seigneurial estate, the forest is an integral part of the region’s historical heritage. Once the hunting grounds of local dukes, it has managed to retain its authentic character. Today, it is sustainably managed, respecting its natural and historical legacy.


A Commitment to the Future

The site is the focus of numerous conservation projects aimed at protecting its flora and fauna while offering a recreational space accessible to all. Local reforestation and ecological management initiatives ensure the preservation of this natural heritage for future generations.

Piccolo castello di cui è rimasto solo un rudere. Parco poco curato e pieno di feci di oche. La località però sarebbe spettacolare e c’è un bel parchetto giochi per i bambini. Parcheggio vicino e lungo la strada.
