A primordial courtship, a powerful sound that echoes for miles through the woods and announces the presence of the true king of the forest: the stag.
During the most evocative time of the year, we will take you on an evening excursion in search of this majestic animal and its tracks, in the month when the males perform their spectacular and impressive rutting displays.
A rare opportunity to immerse yourself in the heart of nature and witness one of the most fascinating moments in the life cycle of the stag.
We will walk amid the silence and calls of the forest as day gives way to dusk, enjoying an intense and exciting experience in close contact with wildlife in its natural environment.
