    The Castillon dam was commissioned in 1948. With its 95 meters high and 200 meters wide, it is rather imposing! It also offers a great view of the Verdon.

    very impressive construction. Only when you stand on the dam you get an image of how gigantic it is. Once a week they open the dam and the water level on the river Verdon has risen so that on the river a whole lot of water activities take place such as canyoning, canoeing, rafting etc.
