Land of adventure and culture around the Pic Saint-Loup
Come and treat your taste buds on a farm with excellent, healthy and local products. An ideal setting, wild and preserved, to experience beautiful adventures.
Around the Pic Saint-Loup, people are also very attached to their land, their pastoral, wine-growing and agricultural history. We love the taste and flavour of local and seasonal products.
Did you know?
It was once part of a vast agricultural estate. In those days, sheep grazed and men tended the scrubland. With the decline in agricultural activity and the reduction in manpower, the former owner could not afford to maintain the park.
The commune of Saint-Gély-du-Fesc therefore acquired this 18-hectare site in 1988 in order to develop it and open it to the public. In order to control the development of scrub, herbivores were introduced.
Fallow deer, sika, mouflons and Girgentana goats have been successfully acclimatised in the park!
Wooded walk in the park of Coulondres.
It is in Combaillaux that Pierre shows his olive fields and how agriculture can be benevolent.
Since industrialisation, agriculture has become more intensive by overexploiting the earth.
But there are more virtuous models. During an original tractor ride, you will discover and understand how the animal, plant and human kingdoms live in harmony.
Let's eat! To round off the visit, a tasting will be offered in the shade of the olive trees.
Shady lunch break...
A large shaded terrace, a fountain, for a lunch break in a cosy and relaxing atmosphere.
This is the promise of the Clos des Oliviers, a gourmet brasserie in Saint-Gély-du Fesc.
It offers refined cuisine based on seasonal products, prepared "by hand" by the kitchen teams.
During the summer season, you can also meet there to celebrate with a summer brazier.

Before the lunch break, organic wine tasting at the Chemin des Rêves estate.
the Path of Dreams really exists...
Did you know ?
That the Chemin des Rêves really exists? It borders the estate's vineyards!
This nickname was given to it by a resident of the village who came to walk there every day. We like to stroll along it, paint or rest to the gentle sound of the cicadas.
It is also the path that a former pharmacist followed to become a winegrower. The estate comprises 21 hectares of vines, spread over two terroirs in the Languedoc PDO: Pic Saint-Loup and Grés de Montpellier, certified organic since 2017.
