A small village nestled among wooded hills of beech and pine. Here is the Verdon, with its mountain landscapes. The wood of the Faye offers nice walks. The ruins of the castrum, the old streets, the chapel ... A small typical village.
Life is enjoyable in this village which remembered past. Away from the main roads, Le Bourguet is situated on a still very used transhumance route. Those who stay here enjoy its landscapes of Pre-Alps’s mountain, its forests and its temperate climate in summer. At the heart of the Verdon’s country, the village is close to places of big interest for tourists.
The parish church dedicated to Our Lady of the Assumption was rebuilt at the end of the 19th century. The chapel was part of the diocese of Senez and was a mediaeval administrative court of Castellane.
The exact date of construction of this chapel is not known. Some people think it dates back to the 11th century, others see it as a 12th century building.
While walking in the forest, you will see a set of rocks cut like towers.
