Saint-Véran is classed as the "highest commune in Europe", and "the most beautiful village of france".

The village has remained true to life, having conserved its 17th and 18th century architecture.

It seems to cling to the mountainside, at a height of 2040 m.

The special "cachet" of St Véran is due to the delicate balance between man and mountain. it's architecture, wood and stone houses, the typical furniture and hand crafts are the visible proof of this "cachet".

This part of the "Hautes Alpes" is a paradise for nature-lovers.

Far from modern-day stress, right next to Italy, the region is famous for its mediterranean mountain climate, its dear blue skies and its 300 days of sunshine a year !
