🏢 About the local organisation
Located in the middle of the valley of Herault, the small village of Lieuran-Cabrières will charm you by its typical setting. The municipality is composed of a principal borough and a hamlet called the Mas de Roujou located along the banks of a small river, the Dourbie. You’ll have the opportunity to discover the beauty of various sites near this place such as the Lake of Salagou, the Dolomitic circus of Mourèze, the ancient Royal Manufactury of Villeneuvette (where is organized each year a Festival combining street theater, concerts…) and less than 20 km away, city of Pezenas.
The objective of the work camp is to repair a dry stone retaining wall, of which certain parts were damaged by bad weather.
💼 What the programme involves
The retaining wall giving access to various terraces is partially collapse. You will continue to rebuild this wall, to support the path above.
