O Roquedols, my Roquedols!

Description

This family walk lets you explore the Roquedols Estate with its château, dovecote and forest. The site's charm will work on both young and old! This walk around the Roquedols Estate has a dreamlike quality: you will be charmed by the scents of the forest, the sound of the stream, and the château. But if you are attentive you will see that this enchanting environment was fashioned by men and women according to their wishes and needs. The walk starts with a very gentle slope in the forest, to the pigeon-loft. It then follows a former béal (irrigation channel) to reach the château and gardens.
