August 6, 2022,Nach Domaine de la Palissade

Today we visited Domaine de la Palissade. This is a nature reserve where various routes have been marked where you can see the typical landscape and vegetation of the Camargue. The white horses are also typical of the Camargue. We rode our bikes there and back. Inside you can walk.
