The ecological commitment of the campsite near Lourdes
Ecological camping in the Hautes-Pyrénées
Respect for nature, and therefore for Mother Earth, is very important to us, and that’s what we want to pass on. That’s why we also practiceeco-pasturing: needless to say, our animals are delighted, especially our ponies who are masters in the art.
The chickens are proud too, because they’re still the best composter (even though we’ve made you a composting station) and they thank us with excellent eggs… Come and ask us, and we’ll be happy to take you to meet and feed these adorable companions, who have become the stars of our campsite!
On request at reception, Jean will open the doors of this little paradise populated by chickens, ponies, rabbits, goats, sheep and our mascot duck: Paulin.
Especially in spring, our duck Paulin visits residents every evening at aperitif time, moving from bowl to bowl and creating moments of conviviality and shared smiles.
The mini-farm becomes a place of exchange and learning, where the values of our ecologically committed campsite are transmitted with joy and simplicity.
Our composting station, fed by the snack bar’s food scraps and campers’ organic waste, produces rich compost that nourishes our soil and supports the campsite’s biodiversity.
Lighting is also designed to be eco-responsible: LED bulbs, which consume less energy, illuminate our common areas, while solar-powered spotlights in all our walkways and motion sensors in the communal washrooms ensure optimum use of energy, switching on only when they detect a presence.
