Birds of the Causses and Gorges
Route details
Description
The thickets along the edges of the Causse Méjean limestone plateau overlook the Tarn river and provide the ideal conditions for exploring this natural environment suspended between sky and gorge. High up in the sky, proud vultures show off, but smaller birds live discreetly along the path. This project was realised by Méjean Primary School in La Parade. Pupils’ drawings are exhibited at several points of interest along the path.
