Walking - The Sirenians Trail

And strange marine mammals called the sirenians inhabited our lands...

40million years ago, the col des Lèques was under the sea. In this warm sea lived peaceful marine mammals: sirenians (ancestors of the current dugongs and manatees). In a unique place in the world, set up by the Haute Provence geological reserve, you will discover remains from 35million years ago.

avoid the heat of summer, bring a hat, water, and walking shoes. The first part of the route passes close to the pastures of the sheep in spring and autumn. The course may be slightly deviated in this area to avoid crossing the herd. Follow the markup. Keep dogs on a leash.
