A pond site next to a waste landfill, the Guelats site is a very good site for observing gulls.
Etangs de Gueltas is ideal for gulls because the Waste Treatment Center provides them with abundant food, while the ponds provide them with a resting place for the night but also a seat for fishing. You can see large gatherings of birds with rare individuals from America or the Arctic, such as the Hvítmáfur, American Herring Gull (Larus smithsonianus) or Kumlien's Gull.

Français: Site d'étang à côté d'un centre d'enfouissement de déchets, le site de Guelats est un site privilégié pour l'observation des laridés. Le site de Gueltas est idéal pour les laridés (et notamment les goélands) car la Centre de traitement des Déchets leur fourni une nourriture abondante, tandis que les étangs leur fournissent le lieu de reposoir pour la nuit mais assi pour la pêche. On peut y voir de grands rassemblements d'oiseaux avec des individus rares venus d'Amérique ou d'Arctique, tels que le Hvítmáfur, le Goéland d'Amérique (Larus smithsonianus) ou le Goéland de Kumnlien.
Paths run along the ponds. The circular route indicated on the map is about 2,5 km.
