Castellane is a town in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, surrounded by limestone hills and shaped by the presence of the Verdon. You can explore its centre on foot, among narrow streets, squares, old gates and Provençal façades. The village attracts travellers looking for a mountain stop, outdoor activities and access to the scenery of the gorges. L'Oustaou Castellane is in this small-town setting, where the services of the centre and routes into nature go hand in hand.

Castellane Market and the Maison Nature et Patrimoines offer a glimpse of local life and the area's history. The Tour de l'Horloge and the Porte de l'Annonciade recall the town's old fortifications; Saint-Victor Church and the Pont du Roc offer other walks around the village. Le Roc, recognisable above the rooftops, dominates the landscape. The Verdon Gorges, 17 km away, are known for their cliffs, turquoise waters and water sports. The region is also suited to cycling, hiking and horse riding.

A car makes it easier to take trips between villages, viewpoints and natural sites, while Castellane's centre is easy to explore on foot. In summer, the days are well suited to swimming, canoeing and drives along scenic roads; allow time for stops and outdoor activities. In spring and early autumn, milder temperatures are ideal for hiking and exploring the village. You can spend a day discovering the centre, walking up to Le Roc and heading out to the landscapes of the Verdon.
