Enchastrayes lies along the Ubaye valley, where the southern French Alps gather steep mountain slopes around a narrow river corridor. The Ubaye River gives the commune a clear geographical thread, while its settlements occupy quieter highland country above the larger town of Barcelonnette. Enchastrayes includes Le Sauze, an established Alpine ski resort whose pistes and lifts make winter sport part of the local identity. In warmer months, valley roads and paths lead through larch woodland and open pasture. This small commune shows a distinctly Alpine side of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, far from the Mediterranean coast.
