Forest Peyrat de Bellac - Nouvelle Aquitaine
The wetland areas found on these former pastures and agricultural lands will be initially delineated and protected. Existing isolated trees and surrounding hedges will be preserved. The remaining portion of the site will be transformed into a predominantly deciduous forest, aiming to recreate a sustainable and welcoming ecosystem for biodiversity.

project key features
project details
The project aims to sustainably plant and manage a forest comprising a total of 53,958 trees with the objective of preserving and restoring natural carbon sinks. EcoTree's model is based on uneven-aged forest management, emphasizing a mix of diverse tree species capable of withstanding climate change.
This approach excludes the use of pesticides and clear-cutting, thereby promoting biodiversity and ecological resilience within the forest ecosystem.
Preserving hedges and isolated trees enhances biodiversity, along with the wetland areas that serve as shelters for numerous odonate and amphibian species. The establishment of protection zones around these areas allows biodiversity to thrive over time. Senescence islands also contribute to biodiversity, resulting in a total of 22 hectares dedicated to it in the Peyrat de Bellac forest.
Several amphibian and ornithological surveys have already been conducted on the site.
