But Arles is also at the door of the Natural Conservation area of La Camargue. La Camargue is actually an ‘island’ enclosed between the Rhône and the Mediterranean, that owes its origin and its very nature to water. A complex drainage and irrigation system has allowed its resources to be put to better use. The area left to nature has preserved much of its original biological wealth. Within the park, the National Camargue Reserve, created in 1927, is a highly protected space which man can only touch at certain places. The ideal way to discover this sandy area of 75 000 hectares, with a salt wind from the sea blowing, is to ride on horseback around the. Not to be missed: the town of Les Saintes-Marie de la Mer as well as the timeless village of Beauduc.
