Along the border of the Gouffern forest, the Sainte-Eugénie castle mound offer magnificent views over the Dives Valley. An adventure through these medieval ruins and the surrounding woodland is a great opportunity to combine nature and history.
The sunny hillside and limestone soil have encouraged unusual plant-life: the fascinating Deadly Nightshade, White and Royal Helleborine orchids and Spurge Laurel are a few of the rarities you can admire.
