About Renting a Car at Dignes Les Bains Saint-Christophe

Digne-les-Bains is known as the 'lavender capital' and home to the Alexandra David-Néel Museum, located centrally in town. The Chemins de Fer de Provence train station connects the town to Nice via a charming mountain railway, but a car gives you access to remote alpine villages. Drive up to Col de Valgelaye (approximately 25 km) for fantastic views over the alpine landscape.

Visit the market at Place du Général de Gaulle on Wednesdays and Saturdays for local produce. Book a rental car in advance during the lavender season July–August when demand is high. Where is the car rental station in Digne-les-Bains?
