A spawning ground transformed into a meadow for part of the year

A spawning ground in Saint-Cyr-sur-Menthon is the largest in the Veyle watershed with its surface area of 12,000 m2 inaugurated in November 2019. Flooded from January to April to facilitate the reproduction of fish such as pike, it becomes a meadow sheltering about sixty species of plants for the rest of the year. This development located on the banks of the Menthon thus attracts numerous insects and animals to form an ecological niche.
