Zen Agritude: A Look at Pastoralism with Mathilde, a Shepherdess at the Col de Rabou

Whilst Le Dévoluy is home to ten times as many sheep as people, the profession of shepherd is characteristic of mid-mountain regions. Have a chat, ask questions, get up close to the Patou dogs and the sheep they protect, and make the most of the wide open spaces around you. Sturdy footwear, mountain clothing and a packed lunch are recommended.

Access to the mountain pasture is at your own risk.
