Trigance

Trigance, guardian of the Verdon gates. Here we find all the charm of a perched village in Provence, with its white limestone houses.

Built in an eagle's nest at an altitude of 800 meters, the village proudly winds itself around the rocky spur on which the imposing feudal castle with its crenellated towers stands. Typical village perched Provençal with its high stone houses forming rampart and topped with Romanesque tiles, the village dominates the valley of the Jabron. Here aromatic scents, invigorating air and soft light give a special relief to this country where the forest borders the garrigue punctuated with boxwood and thyme. The forests are populated by deer, wild boars and even chamois. The ideal ground for small or big hikes.
