LA FERME DU DOLMEN

The botanical path

A walk dotted with scents and colors

Almost 200 local species are carefully registered and labeled to guide you in discovering some flowers, some trees, some bushes ans some essences which contribute to the richness and to the charm of the mediterranean landscape and of the garrigue.

The botanical path runs along the picturesque slopes, the old walls and the restored "restanques". It is swallowed up in the shade by the sweet smelling bushes, it goes round old stones and bunches of beauty.
