Description

At 2 100m altitude, facing the glacier from la Meije, over 2000 species of alpine and mountain flowers and mountains from all over the world are gathered on 2 hectares of one of the most beautiful and high altitude garden in Europe.

Each year, the garden opens its doors from the 1st weekend of June to the 1st weekend of September.
