Notre Dame du Roc

Every wednesday morning (we leave the campsite at 09.00 am), the Camping International organise a walk to the Roc. It's quite nice !!! Everyone can come: the way is very easy and the view on the top is wonderful.

This is where we're going ....

The road to the Roc is an ancient pilgrimage way.

  

To go on the top, the road goes all around the mountain.It permits to appreciate differents views.



Notre Dame du Roc:



On the top the landscape stretch out to the horizon ....

We can see the campsite which seems put down at the bottom of the mountain



Vertiginous !!!!!!

The both ways to go up .... or down ....

The way of return ( this one which goes down on the above picture) finishes to the center of Castellane.We arrive just behind the church.(around 11.00 am )

Then we've got all time that we need to enjoy the market ...

Typical....

I've tried the train des Pignes. it's a very small train , so typical ....

it's useful for people who want to go to Nice whithout taking their own car. It's just stop on the center of Nice.

It's something to try if you'll come in the region.The station is to St André les Alpes : 20 min by car from Castellane.

Just wonderful ....

On thrusday i've done the organised hike in the Gorges du Verdon. We were with 26 persons... We lelf the camping at 07.45 am and a bus drove us 'til le chalet de la Maline.It was 09.00 am when we really started!!!

Let's see at some views

The most upsetting way of all the hike:

At 01.00 pm we've made a break near a natural beach.

some of us took advantage of it to swim in the Verdon

The end of the hike finishes with two dark tunnels then we took the road 'til the bus stop.

Just an advice : Do it !!!

Football... an international game !!!

Every tuesday it's football: Everyone can play: children, teenagers, adults, girls and boys... We just enjoy having fun !!

Even if they're young, the rules will be respected ....

So tiring to be goalkeeper !!!!!

Once upon a time

On tuesday , i spent all my morning looking around this small village.

Look at what i found ....

This is the center place where you can enjoy two markets per week : wednesday and saturday.

If you go through this place, you will find the main street which crossing Castellane.

All around the center place , there are a lots of shops, pubs and restaurants.Here: one of the tree churchs

Le Grand hotel du Levant, a very good restaurant , not so expensive compare others but you need to book in advance

Some views of the town .....
