La Garde Pop. : 56 Alt. : 900m Département des Alpes de Haute Provence
|
![]() The
surrounding areas offer nice walks on the Teillon mountain (1894m.), and
on the Destourbes mountain. For strong walkers there is the GR4 which goes straight through La Garde. On this trail you can see the indigenous fauna and flora. La Garde owes its name to the watch-tower that stood in the village in
the 12th century. Just outside the village, overlooking a vast prairie, stands a rather surprising chapel all by itself, with a green tiled bell-tower, and sturdy chimes that ring out every hour.
The lucky inhabitants of La Garde have no worries at all, enjoying the coolness of the evening in their hedged gardens, breathing this pure gentle air as they listen to the crickets sing ! |
