Why Camargue matters
The Camargue is the Rhône delta, a flat landscape of lagoons, reeds and salt pans. White horses and black bulls roam, and flamingos wade in the shallows. Take a horseback ride or a bird-watching tour.
Talking points
- Flamingos live in the lagoons.
- White horses are a symbol of the region.
