Lavender PathPhoto: Lionel Terrail RLL, Grandes Itinérances
You are in the land of blue gold, in the heart of the largest true lavender (lavandula angustifolia) production area in Europe.
From Sault, the lavender capital, this developed path allows you to discover all the facets of this Provençal symbol in all seasons. Let yourself be guided by the interpretation panels (botany, cultivation, harvesting, distillation) and the signage along your route.
