Camargue's 400 Species of Birds

The Camargue is Western Europe's largest river delta and  encompasses 400 species of birds. The Camargue marshes in France are one of the few European habitats for the greater flamingo, making bird-watching a very rewarding activity.

In the Camargue, people are very passionate about horses and around every 2 km you'll find a riding stable that offer tours in the marshes. To avoid the tourist crowds and mosquito season, try to visit the large lakes, salt pans and lagoons of the Camargue during late spring or early autumn.

Small safaris with local guides are the best way to discover and explore this wild and scenic landscape.
