1a - Chérine national nature reserve& Beauregard interpretation trail
Within its more than 370 hectares the reserve has most of the habitat types, and thus species to be found in Brenne. Thanks to the protection they are afforded and the re-serve’s management many rare species of plants and ani-mals thrive within its limits. These are often easily obser-ved thanks to the provision of several well sited hides and various strategic access points for the public.
One of the best walks in the Brenne (Plus belles balades du Parc) “Voyage entre les étangs et le canal des 5 bondes”, (the 17 km walk takes about 5 hours to complete). Follow the green mar-kers from the auberge de la Gabrière car park (off the map).For more information “Brenne nature” in English.

Less lakes and much more woodland, this area can be very interesting for many rare species; it provides a contrast to the rest of the Brenne and has several species that aren’t found elsewhere. On very hot days it is also a way of avoiding the sun.
One of the best walks in the Brenne (Plus belles balades du Parc) “Luxurience marécageuse”, (the 3.5 km walk takes about 2 hours to complete). Follow the blue markers from the car park located on the map.

Les communaux de Rosnay (Rosnay common) is a major site for both Tongue and Loose-fl owered orchids with many tens of thousands of the fi rst in fl ower in early June. It is also good for various bird and butterfl y species.

Many rare species can be seen in an area much less frequented by the public.
