Location & what to see

Barcelonnette lies in the Ubaye Valley, amid the peaks of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. This small mountain town combines shopping streets, village squares and houses with colourful façades. Its history is also marked by its connections with Mexico, visible in some villas and in the architecture of the centre. The town suits travellers who enjoy alternating strolls around town with outings in an Alpine landscape.

The centre is home to the Tour de l’Horloge and the Musée de Barcelonnette, which focuses on local history and links with Mexico. Parc de la Sapinière offers space for a walk, while Golf du Bois Chenu provides an outdoor activity amid the Ubaye mountains. The bus station at place Aimé Gassier makes it easier to travel around the valley without a car. A vehicle can be useful for longer trips and reaching hiking trailheads. Mercantour National Park and the valley’s ski resorts offer a variety of scenery and activities depending on the season.

In summer, hiking trails and cycling routes invite you to explore the peaks and villages of the Ubaye; you can combine a day out in the mountains with a visit to Barcelonnette’s heritage. In winter, nearby ski areas take over with their slopes and snow activities. In spring and autumn, walks through the valley let you enjoy quieter surroundings and the changing colours of the Alpine landscape.
