Fête Nature – Haute-Île Regional Park

The Haute-Île Regional Park hosts an immersive discovery day focusing on the hidden wildlife and archaeological history of the riverbank. Tracing its origins to this park has served as a center for prehistoric research and a sanctuary for migratory birds in the heart of Greater Paris. The event highlights the regional identity of the department as a territory that celebrates its deep historical roots through nature and science. Visitors can participate in archaeological simulations and bird-watching workshops led by regional specialists and museum educators during the festival. This initiative has a profound social impact by providing free cultural training and fostering environmental awareness among the residents of the suburbs. For researchers it delivered a fascinating case study on the integration of archaeology and biodiversity in a contemporary urban nature park. The program ensures the legacy of the island as a site of knowledge remains accessible and protected for the regional community.
