It comprises dense thickets of approximately 1 metre in height, in which rosemary and grey-leaved cistus are abundant. Common smilax and asparagus are also present, with scattered examples of wild olive and Aleppo pine.
The strong sunshine makes this setting an ideal habitat for some reptiles such as the ocellated lizard and the ladder snake.
