Wetlands provide numerous services: water purification, flood mitigation, and low-flow support. Unfortunately, they are disappearing at a rate three times faster than deforestation: 67% of wetlands have disappeared in France since 1970, including 50% between 1960 and 1990.

In this context, the Panzoult wetland was restored in a first phase of work by the Val de Vienne Rivers Syndicate in 2015, followed by a second phase in 2023 and 2024.
Come and discover the unique features of this wetland through an educational loop consisting of five informative panels.

Description

  1. The Importance of Wetlands
    Wetlands play an essential role for humans.
  2. The Fauna and Flora Present on the Site
    The site hosts a variety of protected plants adapted to wetland environments, as well as a rich fauna, ranging from amphibians to birds and reptiles.
  3. The Importance of Trees and Hedges
    Existing and planted trees and hedges serve as refuges for biodiversity, contribute to climate regulation, and play a key role in carbon storage.
  4. Ecological Corridors
    These natural corridors allow species to move and exchange between different habitats, promoting genetic diversity and strengthening ecosystems.
  5. The Importance of Bocages
    Bocages help preserve soil, regulate water flow, and maintain biodiversity by creating a mosaic of habitats suitable for animal and plant species.
