A nocturnal adventure to listen to amphibians and discover the hidden life of the Grande Cariçaie.

As daylight fades, the marsh awakens in a whole new way. This evening outing in the Grande Cariçaie invites participants to listen rather than look.

Guided by a biologist, the group follows the sounds of the night – croaking frogs, rustling reeds, the soft calls of tree frogs and the distinctive voice of the yellow-bellied toad.

Torch in hand, boots on, everyone moves quietly through the reserve, immersed in a peaceful and sensory-rich experience within protected surroundings.
