Arboretum de Cazebonne

About

The Arboretum de Cazebonne (4 hectares) is an arboretum located about 4 km from Alzon, on D 231 towards Villaret, Gard, Languedoc-Roussillon, France. It is located within the Cevennes National Park, managed by the Office National des Forêts, and opened daily without charge. The arboretum was created in 1903 by Charles Henri Marie Flahault (1852–1935) and Georges Fabre, near the formation village of Cazebonne, as an experimental station for testing introduction of exotic trees. It contains riding paths and mature, labeled trees including Araucaria and Sequoiadendron giganteum.
