Small nature reserve of 10 ha made up of various interesting wetlands. Almost 100 species of birds have been observed here!
Etang de Launoy nature reserve is dedicated to nature conservation and is of particular interest to avifauna. Besides Eurasian Coot and Eurasian Moorhen which are very common there, Common Kingfisher is one of the flagship species of the site. The reed bed, restored in 2017, notably accommodates the Reed Warbler and serves as a wintering site for the Reed Bunting. More occasional, the Water Rail and Grasshopper Warbler also frequent the site.
