Hiking - The Botanical Trail
I love this rich and pleasant stroll throughout the year taking advantage of the landscapes especially in spring with the maximum flowering.
Take time to discover the various facets of vegetation. Throughout the route you will find signs naming the main species of trees and shrubs. Be careful and enjoy them without damaging, please do not pick them, such seemingly common species can be rare and protected. This is the case of the fritillaria here present, which is found only in the Southern Alps. A beautiful photo lasts longer. Stefano Blanc Ecogarde at the PNR Verdon.
We recommend at least 2L / 34 OZ of water per person, a hat and proper walking shoes. Avoid trail during hot weather. Find out before, the forests are sometimes closed in the summer due to fire risk. The town of Esparron de Verdon had two major fires in 2003 and 2005, BE CAREFUL! FIRE CAN START VERY QUICKLY. (As a reminder, smoking in forests is prohibited).
