It is the quintessential expression of the land itself. Corsica, condensed into these 7 hectares of landscape, can be fully explored, taken in and admired thanks to the plants of the maquis : mastic, arbutus, myrtle, phyllirea, euphorbia,? and the relics of an ancient agricultural past: terraces, threshing grounds, « pagliaghju » shelters, drinking troughs,? Here, you stroll through groves of olive trees, cypress and oleander and enjoy the whole of the Mediterranean in this exceptional setting. » An exceptional collection of plant life: over 100 varieties of olive tree, varieties of rosemary, 70 varieties of oleander, 120 varieties of wild rose?
