A meeting
The Maison du Castor is above all an extraordinary encounter.
A friendly-looking animal, the beaver has not always been protected. Between episodes of the Cévennes and dry spells, the beaver thrives in a riverine vegetation made up of willows and poplars. And it is from these trees that our furry ball will feed. Rarely straying far from the river, the animal leaves behind signs of its presence visible from the beaches of the Gardon. Around him, a rich and exceptional biodiversity gravitates to form a complex ecosystem.
Throughout your visit, the museographic space will help you discover and understand the environment of the Gardon gorges.
