Walk to listen to the song of the birds
This lovely loop crosses different environments to increase the chances of meeting a maximum number of songbirds: birds of the garden, of cultivated environments, of the woods and of the banks of watercourses. Supervised by an experienced mid-mountain guide, the tour allows you to immerse yourself in nature to meet these feathered companions.
Included services
With the arrival of many migratory birds, April marks the start of the spring concert in our region. The orchestra, now well represented, echoes across hills and valleys, fields and forests, from the first light of dawn to the final moments of dusk.
During a gentle walk between Genolier and the Bois de Chênes nature reserve, an encounter is offered with some of the most common musicians of our countryside and woodlands. Their songs will become familiar, and observation will be attempted whenever they allow themselves to be seen.
Naturally, the main aim remains to enjoy the full chorus in the soft light of the early morning.
