Castellane

Highlight • Settlement

Castellane is a superb town located on the edge of the Verdon, 724 meters above sea level. It is dominated by the Roc, a huge rocky outcrop around which the city was located in the Middle Ages. It is pleasant to stroll through the alleys of the city, to admire the stone houses and to discover many stalls of all kinds. There are also several restaurants and cafes.
