Enclos à daims

The Enclos a daims is a 40-hectare deer enclosure where fallow deer live in a semi-natural setting that visitors can explore. Walking trails wind through wooded sections and provide clear views of the resident animals while maintaining safe distances.

The enclosure was created in 1970 as part of the Morvan Regional Natural Park initiative to protect wildlife and preserve the region's natural heritage. It grew from a desire to safeguard the local fauna of Burgundy for future generations.

The site reflects a regional approach to keeping wild animals visible and accessible to people who want to learn about local fauna. The walking paths and viewing distances show how the space balances public access with the needs of the resident deer population.

The enclosure is open year-round with marked pathways that allow visitors to move safely while observing the deer from appropriate distances. Wear sturdy footwear since the trails can vary in condition depending on the season and recent weather.

The grounds contain century-old trees and small water sources that create different habitats within the enclosure. These natural features allow visitors to watch not just the deer but also how other local animal species live alongside them.
