The traveller arriving by the Col de Maure from Digne-les-Bains, suddenly sees the sunny Vallée du Pays de Seyne, the Vallée de la Blanche unfold before him. Here is Seyne-les-Alpes, built against the Robine hill and crowned by its Vauban Fort and its 'Grande tour'.

A walk in the village of Seyne-les-Alpes will show you, in addition to the big church, ramparts, Fort Vauban, 'Grande tour', the old streets with dated doors and houses with half-timbering, the place du Couvent and other religious buildings.

Today, Seyne-les-Alpes has a vocation of agriculture and tourism. The breeding tradition, the proximity of the 3 winter sports resorts and the Lake of Serre-Ponçon, all contribute to the dynamism of this mountain village which is an approved 'Station verte de holidays and village de neige'.
