The grounds feature a mix of mature ornamental trees and lawn areas designed for local recreation. The site is maintained by the City of Tarbes and serves as a quiet neighborhood amenity rather than a major tourist attraction. It is characterized by flat, accessible terrain suitable for leisurely walking. The layout focuses on preserving open grass expanses bordered by established vegetation.
