Cistus or Jara

Cistus or Jara

Sierra de La Cabrera. Rock rose. Spanish has cistus and also jara (jara, apparently means smelling of sh.t in arabic).
But I don't get it. Yes, there can be a heady, cloying, almost sickly air on some days but usually the aroma, mixed in with the lavender, rosemary and thyme is to die for!

It does not seem an easy terrain to walk on, but I am sure worth it.

Well I like your description of the lavender, rosemary and thyme scent far better than the jara referred to by the Spanish. lol Those mountains seem to go on forever Andy.
