Welcome to ma-propriete.fr, the leading portal for rural real estate. If you are looking for a nature-focused investment in the heart of Gascony, you are in the right place. Our platform offers a wide selection for any forest purchase project in Gers. Whether you are a seasoned investor, a silviculture enthusiast, or simply looking for an unspoiled corner of nature, the department of Gers offers unique opportunities within the Occitanie region.
The department of Gers, often nicknamed the "Little Tuscany" for its rolling landscapes and art of living, is not limited to its sunflower fields and Armagnac vineyards. It is also a region rich in wooded areas, even if forests are less dense here than in other French departments. A forest property in Occitanie, and particularly in Gers, is often characterised by its fragmentation and its harmonious integration into an agricultural landscape.
With a forest cover of around 13%, the forests of Gers cover about 85,000 hectares. Unlike large industrial forests, the area is mainly made up of fragmented private woodland, offering a great variety of small and medium-sized plots. It is the ideal setting to find a wooded plot for sale on a human scale.
The forests of Gers are mainly made up of broadleaves. Oak stands (pedunculate oak and downy oak) largely dominate the landscape, representing a significant share of the wooded area. These oak forests are often managed as simple coppice or coppice with standards, providing an excellent resource for firewood, a very active local sector.
However, there are also high-quality broadleaved high forests intended for timber. In wetter areas and along watercourses, the poplar plantations in the Gers valley are an important economic resource, with shorter production cycles and constant demand from the peeling and packaging industries.
Forestry activity is spread over the whole territory, with specific local features:
Investing in this department also means taking an interest in biodiversity. Many woods are wildlife refuges, and it is not uncommon to find a hunting estate in the 32 (a term used here to refer to the hunting potential of a forest) that will delight big game enthusiasts (roe deer, wild boar) or woodcock hunters. Lastly, water is a major asset: a property combining woodland and a pond is particularly sought after for amenities and leisure activities.
Our portal is designed to make your search easier and secure your forest investment in Gascony. Whether your goal is timber production, building up an asset, tax optimisation or simply acquiring woodland for leisure, we provide you with powerful tools.

Silviculture in Gers requires technical and legal knowledge. To ensure your project’s success, we can put you in touch with rural real estate and forest management professionals via our page dedicated to contact requests. These experts can advise you on the sustainable management of your forest, the drafting of a simple management plan (PSG) which is compulsory for areas of more than 25 hectares, or on reforestation work.
The price per hectare of woodland in Gers can vary considerably depending on the quality of the stands, accessibility, density and soil type. A simple scrubland will not have the same value as a mature high forest ready for harvesting. To help you see things more clearly, we offer land valuation study services. A good estimate of woodland value is the key to a successful and fair transaction.
Forest investment has specific technical and tax aspects (DEFI scheme, partial IFI exemption, etc.). To guide you, we provide a wide range of educational resources:
In summary, whether you want to carry out a timber harvesting operation to enhance your asset, plant for the future or simply enjoy an exceptional natural heritage, Gers offers an outstanding setting.
