Trailence

Hiking - A Mediterranean bird festival

An easy walking path around the Opies during which you will easily see all the rare or typical species of the Alpilles.

"I love to walk on the old transhumance route that connects the Alpilles to Crau. The simplicity and beauty of the landscape seem to amaze me every time, and here we can find an extraordinary biodiversity. All the beauty and richness of the site are seen through the beautiful light of a spring morning with the concert of bird songs and watching rare species: Black-eared wheatear, Southern grey hrike, Bonelli's Eagle ... " Lisbeth Zechner, project manager of LIFE at the RNP of the Alpilles.

Very little shade on the trail, make sure to take a cap.Come rather early in the morning (7.00) or late afternoon (18.00) to enjoy the tranquillity of the area and to see and hear the birds sing. Bring a pair of binoculars..
