It is composed of several plots, where different tree species such as red oak, Sitka spruce and Douglas fir are planted. Thanks to its rich biodiversity, the forest has been recognised as a Natural Zone of Interest for Ecology, Fauna and Flora (ZNIEFF of type I et II). It is also protected by a Natura 2000 habitats directive.

Following this forestry operation, supplementary planting was carried out among the Sitka spruce plantations. Furthermore, a plot of mature Sitka spruce underwent a thinning operation to promote natural regeneration. The forest was affected heavily by two seperate storms. The first once 'The Ciaran storm' occurred in November 2023 and the second one in the winter of 2024/25. The trees that felll or were damaged during the Ciaran storm were removed in 2024, whilst the trees affected by the second storm were removed in the sommer of 2025. In two turns we removed approximately 360 cubic meters of wood, which was sold to a local sawmill in Carhaix.

That is why we conducted a study of the different groups of species present to determine the conservation challenges. We planted and regularly maintain a honey hedge in the area. Long-term plans include restoration work on a 5-hectare wetland. The habitat will be opened up, scrub stripping areas will be created, and five forest ponds will be established to promote the preservation of species of conservation concern. Finally, based on the results of the study of the different groups of species present, we plan to apply for the Wildlife Estates label.
