Viewpoint overlooking the Salin de Giraud

Highlight • Other

A detour to the viewing point is worthwhile! From the slightly higher vantage point, you have a better view of the scale of the saltworks. In the sunlight, you can see the pools shimmering in various shades of pink.

Cycle path in the Camargue Biosphere Reserve buffer zone

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This cycle path leads through a surreal landscape. Here nature, desolation, industry and decay meet. On some days the powerful Mistral blows, even better in the direction of travel than an electric drive.
