Not to be missed:

Forcalquier: charming old town with narrow alleys, shaded squares and beautiful old mansions. Take a tour of the citadel to admire the landscape stretching in front of you and don't miss the Monday morning market.

Sigonce: superb village with shaded and flowery plots, old mansions tastefully restored, fountains, washhouses and oratories with, as a backdrop, magnificent landscapes.

Pierrerue: small village set on the slope of a hill and surrounded by splendid landscapes. Here you will discover a heritage of several eras that the village strives to maintain such as the Middle Ages castle or the parish church.

Niozelles: Located in the green Beveron Valley, the village of Niozelles is organized in length around its small main street where beautiful old houses follow each other in line.
