Premium Stay
A UNIQUE ENCOUNTER WITH NATURE
THE EXPERIENCE
In two days and one night, this stay distils the very essence of La Réserve: a genuine immersion in the heart of 700 hectares of unspoilt nature. To be experienced alone, with family or with friends, from December to August (unavailable in September–October).
This stay is organised as follows:
- Guided safari, alone or in a small group, in search of large herbivores (bison, deer, Przewalski horses…). Led by a naturalist guide with whom you will share far more than a simple safari: fascinating conversations, suspended moments, and the rare opportunity to step behind the scenes of life in the wild. Allow yourself to be surprised by the magic of this place.
- Privileged observation periods, to understand how the ecosystem functions and self-regulates.
- An overnight stay in ecological accommodation, in absolute peace and quiet, to make the most of the experience and restore your energy.
This Premium Stay is a simple, honest and sincere experience, where disconnecting from the everyday comes naturally and the living world reclaims its rightful place.
