The 5 senses in the garden of Lautaret, what is it? Good already the VIEW. How beautiful it is in Lautaret, in any season with its 360° mountains... and then when this natural setting is magnified by the collections of plants whose seeds have been harvested worldwide... We take full mirettes! SMELL. We teach you nothing, it smells better in a garden than in the city;-) TASTE. The garden of Lautaret has many useful and edible plants. Attention, we taste that if the guide invites you, of course! Sharpen your taste buds, because you will not be told the name of the plants before you taste them and you will have to guess what other food it makes you think of. The OUIE. Song of birds, lapping water, rustling leaves, small fauna that sneaks between the stems of flowers... A delight for the ears. We are immediately transported to Paradise... Yes, yes, downright! The TOUCH. In our open-air museum, as for the taste, we only touch if we allow you and we explain that some plants have stinging or photosensitive properties! You are warned:-)
