Camping Camping National Nature Reserve of Lilleau des Niges

Set out to explore the Lilleau des Niges Nature Reserve in the heart of Fier d’Ars bay to the north of the Île de Ré, not far from your top-of-the-range campsite. The reserve is a true sanctuary for hundreds of migratory birds and promises an extraordinary experience, immersed in nature with your favourite people.

Leave the crowds behind at the Maison du Fier interactive museum space and venture out onto one of the trails, binoculars at the ready to spot the different bird species! The bonus? You can easily reach the reserve on foot or by bike from your 4 star or 5 star campsite. The Lilleau des Niges Nature Reserve is one of France’s finest sites for birdwatching enthusiasts. Insider tip: bring suitable waterproof clothing for visiting the reed beds and trails through the wetlands.

Back at the campsite, you’ll be able to kick back and relax after a day packed with discoveries! Slip into your swimsuit and head to the water park, where you can lie back and unwind on one of the sun loungers.

You’ll find the Lilleau des Niges Nature Reserve just a stone’s throw from the charming village of Les Portes-en-Ré, near your campsite. Take the family along for an encounter with an array of bird species as you explore the site. Fun and discovery for all the family!

Before or after your trip, stop off at the Maison du Fier where children can discover interactive exhibitions, educational games and other fun activities. If you’re heading out for the day, pack a picnic!

Back at the campsite, the kids will race over to the children’s club to tell their pals all about their birdwatching adventures!

On your next romantic camping break on the Île de Ré, let the meandering trails at the Lilleau des Niges Nature Reserve lead you through salt marshes and reed beds, where the rest of the world feels wonderfully far away…

There’s a new view waiting at every turn, so savour a real breath of fresh air and a welcome break from the daily grind.
