The Durance and the Bléone are two rivers crossing the Alpes de Haute-Provence. Manosque, Sisteron and Digne-les-Bains contribute to make these two valleys the main basin of population, economic and tourist activities of the department.
Between Luberon and Contadour, the Pays de Forcalquier and the Montagne de Lure, witnesses of a pastoral life still important nowadays. The rural architecture of the villages, farms, sheepfolds is one of the many jewels of this territory.
Here, nature is everywhere. Far from larger cities, the Pays de Forcalquier - Montagne de Lure offers vast open spaces to its visitors on a land with more than 1000 years of history.
A shiny land where the sun shines almost 300 days per year. But also a land of contrasts with various landscapes where fauna, flora and heritage are extraordinary. If you want to meet the inhabitants of this magnificent country, you have to go on a dirt track in the guarrigue, zigzag under the oaks to discover a Romanesque chapel, a lavender field or a typical Provencal village.
