La boucle des Moïles

The Moïles loop, with its numerous themed stops, allows you to discover the formation of these areas as well as the traces left by humans throughout the centuries. The fauna of these wetlands is rich and particularly diverse.

Several ancient meanders of the Isère River, by deepening the glacial valley of Grésivaudan, have created meadows and wetlands. These remarkable examples of alluvial meadows and forests allow us to imagine the wild Isère plain before the development of hydraulic engineering and highways.

The value of these sites lies in preserving environments that have become rare today.
The presence of rare species such as marsh ragwort, reed bunting, and Mercury bluet confirms the importance of these sites. But the most remarkable habitats are the marsh orchid meadows, which are also favorable to birds and the large copper butterfly. The softwood woodlands shelter numerous woodpeckers and wood-boring insects, all of which are declining.
