Must i book to go to this restuarant
Is it a far hike to it

any info welcome

plse

Hi jumbo65!

No - it is not far to walk to it from the road. A bit of a climb that is all. And no booking needed as far as I know.

It would be a good idea to ask the reception when they will be laying out a carcass again, so you time your visit there to when one is put out.

I went when there was not a carcass out, and had good vulture sightings anyway.

This pic was taken from the Vulture restaurant back to where we had parked.

Correct - no booking needed

thks for the replies

is it like a birdhide setup ,
do 1 sit in the open
how far r u from the carcasses

thks

Hi jumbo65, it's a open area and not fenched in. The post by Guinea Pig will give you a pretty good idea. Have a look here.

You do just sit in the open, on the ridge (no seating or bird hide structure), and have a good view down over the plateau in front of you and on a clear day can see the Mont-aux-Sources.

Thks all for the replies

Reception tells me they dont know when the farmers will put out carcases,

planning to go ther on thursday
