Vanil Noir Nature Reserve
Hiking Highlight (Segment)
Recommended by 13 hikers
The 15 square kilometer nature reserve has a very special climate: it is warm and dry and the area extends over several altitudes. Thus, the pre-alpine landscape is incredibly diverse: Down in the valley you can discover plants from the Mediterranean, while up on the summit you can find flora from the Arctic. A total of 500 species of plants grow in the Vanil Noir nature reserve and over 70 species of butterflies are at home in the lush flower meadows.
