Mountains Camping - Etoile des Neiges

At the edge of the village, at the foot of the pine- and larch-wooded slopes, you will discover a green and rustic land, with work changing with the seasons, farms with horses, sheep and cows in the fields. A peaceful atmosphere which seems to rise from the ground and envelope you. Discover the characterful village of Seyne les Alpes: fortifications, mediaeval streets, the Museum of the Mule, local produce, local festivals.
