Le Jardin Exotique of La Roque Gageac

When you stay at our La Roque Gageac campsite, you’ll be able to discover its sublime exotic garden.
 
Nestled between the cliff and the river, the village enjoys a particularly mild climate which has allowed the development of an exotic garden. Born from the will of an enthusiast who took advantage of the natural solarium of the cliff to plant a luxuriant Mediterranean vegetation, we meet palm trees, banana trees, bougainvilleas, orange trees, pomegranates, lemon trees and other oleanders.
 
The Garden is open to visitors free of charge all year round.
