PORT GINESTA ENVIRONMENT AND POLICY
PRIVILEGED NATURAL ENVIRONMENT

area of 12,820 hectares .
It is a predominantly rocky landscape, of lunar aspect, with numerous deep underground caves and caverns formed by the action of water on limestone. These geological features also occur as a result of rivers within the mountains exiting as
