This is a magnificent Mediterranean interpretation of Niwaki, the ancestral Japanese art of pruning. Pruned into clouds, the native trees and shrubs in this topiary garden evoke the garrigue, hills and valleys of the surrounding countryside. A passionate gardener, Thierry patiently guides the trees and sculpts the shrubs to create transparencies, perspectives and magnificent views of the impressive panorama. To visit the Jardin des Buis is to take a look at a microcosm of the attentive gardener, where diversity and plant density stimulate biodiversity. The gardener's role is to regulate the blossoming and good health of the plants. The natural stone cooling pond structures the 400m2 garden. It is the unit of measurement for the architecture of a spectacular, majestic and living landscape, maintained with the desire to achieve formal perfection. A rainwater tank supplies the water needed for watering. Organic amendments are used to maintain the quality of the draining soil. Garden management is pragmatic and ecological.

Le Montgrillet is the hillock above the village. The population of Meyrannes used to be overwhelmingly farmers, who lived on what they grew. Le Montgrillet is exposed to the sun and close to the village, and was the ideal spot for farming. Evidence for this can be seen all along the path. The grove of olive trees above the path indicates one of the crops once grown in Meyrannes, along with grapes and mulberry trees (for leaves to feed to silkworms). (B. Mathieu)  

This structure was built using dry-stoning techniques (i.e. without binder) and was once used by the farmer to store his harvest, tidy away his tools or take shelter when a storm about to burst did not leave him enough time to return home. The builder chose to make his hut back onto a terrace, so as to economise on one wall and save space. On this sloping land, efficiency is of the essence: the farmer has to make the most of every cultivatable square metre. Terrace walls built from stones serve to create horizontal plots, remove stones from the land and prevent erosion. (B. Mathieu)

Picnic area. Drinking water point nearby.

A site not to be missed! The Valbonne state forest stretches across a number of communes between the Cèze and Ardèche, including Saint-Julien-de-Peyrolas, Saint-Laurent-de-Carnols and Saint-Christol-de-Rodières.

Nestled in a complete verdant space, the “Chartreuse de Valbonne” unfolds its atypical architecture and proudly displays its multicoloured tiles, with a Burgundian trace. Founded in the 13th century, it occupies the small valley within the beautiful forest of Valbonne which still contains today rare essences in Provence. Though before, this small “oasis” was a swampy valley only. The efforts and patience of a dozen monks were needed to clear and cleanse the area, before the vaults of this edifice could be raised. The place then became the vallis bona, where the name Valbonne derives from. It has been listed as a historical monument since 1959, and the Charterhouse kept the authenticity of its monastic cells from its centuries of history, and they are now re-established for our visitors with the utmost fidelity. Around the Charterhouse, come and wander through its interpretive trail leading you to the forest, while bringing a well sought-after freshness during the summer.
