Castellane | Saint-André-les-Alpes |

From Saint-André-les-Alpes, the route takes altitude to overlook Lake Castillon, before diving on Castellane on a technical but pleasant descent.

Take advantage of the crossing of Castellane to refuel and visit the village and Maison Nature & Heritage. If the village is endearing, you will still have to resume your path towards Vauplane. Fifteen kilometres of climb await you, under the pines and through steppe meadows. Expeasant!

The descent, deserved, joins the banks of the Estéron, tributary of the Var which shaped the relief of the valley and cut the landscape, giving birth to the 'Clue de Saint-Auban'. Unmissable.
