Protected and shaded path connecting the village of Carolles to the beach, it follows the route of the old railway line and crosses the Crapeu. Its name was given to it in the early 1900s due to the regular presence of impressionist painters who came to settle in Carolles to find inspiration. Remarkable plant species.
