The main objective of this project is the restoration of the historic dry-stone walls in Les Pradières. These walls are important elements of the cultural landscape and play a crucial role in biodiversity conservation. They provide habitat for numerous species, including amphibians and reptiles, and contribute to the ecological stability of the region. Highest priority will be given to walls located away from the shooting ranges, whose conservation has the greatest impact on biodiversity, species diversity, and the traditional landscape.


During this project, participants can lend a hand and restore a section of a wall. This work is both physically and mentally demanding, as the stones must be layered in such a way that the structure will last for the next 200 years.
