The Loire Valley region in central France includes three large natural areas - the Brenne, the Sologne and the ribbon of nature reserves along the Loire River. These areas form a prime destination for wildlife enthusiasts.
The best known features of the region are the thousands of reed-fringed lakes with their wealth of birds. The mosaic of flowery meadows, hedgegrows, heathlands and old oak woodlands supports an incredible flora and fauna. Only a two hour drive from Paris, this region is one of the finest nature destinations in France.
