The Musée-Promenade stands as the interpretive centre of the UNESCO Geopark of Haute-Provence. Visitors wander through a sprawling shaded park where pathways and streams intertwine, and where cascades and contemporary artworks come together to create an enchanting setting."Picnic facilities and open toilets are available. Embark on a journey to encounter butterflies, wander leisurely or learn about the geological history of the region and the global network of UNESCO Geoparks. Internationally renowned artists such as Andy Glodsworthy, Joan Fontcuberta, Sylvie Bussières or Agathe Larpent got their inspiration from here. An area for wandering and creation, overlooking Digne from its rock, it immerses the visitor in a quiet atmosphere leading him to the heart of the Earth’s memory… In the exhibition rooms, the last 300 million years of Earth’s history unfold before our eyes. In ancient times, the alpine ocean was covering the region. Tropical marine aquariums illustrate this memory, juxtaposing colourful living species with stone fossils, of which Ammonites and Ichthyosaurs are the kings. A film tells the history and the evolution of the landscapes of the region as well as the great transformations that the Earth has undergone. It enables each person to grasp the extraordinary richness of this territory. Japanese garden To discover within the Musée Promenade : the Kamaïshi Japanese garden. Of Japanese inspiration,this garden was conceived as a tribute to the twinning of Digne and Kamaïshi around the theme of “Man and the Seasons”. The various stages of a person’s life are represented through progressive blooms along the pathway. Each entrance is marked by a Japanese-style gate, inviting visitors to enter the garden. A bridge, a pond, paths, benches, carefully chosen vegetation, lanterns and pagodas coexist harmoniously in this timeless space accessible to all (with wheelchair access). The Butterfly Trail Between waterfalls and terraces specially designed to host the favourite - or exclusive - plants of butterflies and their caterpillars, in this particular environment on the edge of mediterranean and alpine climate, more than 139 species of butterflies live freely and can be observed from spring to autumn.

La réserve naturelle géologique de Haute-Provence située entre le Verdon et la Durance est labellisé pour la diversité de ses paysages, témoins du passé géologique de ce massif et de la Terre. Elle est la plus grande réserve de ce type en Europe.Créée en 1984 par décret, la réserve géologique de Haute-Provence s’étend sur un territoire de 200 000 hectares entre les Alpes de Haute-Provence et le Var. Elle concerne la nappe de charriage de Digne, l’arc plissé de Castellane, le bassin de Digne-Valensole et des chaînons provençaux varois. Elle protège et valorise des sites géologiques, des fossiles en place, des paysages aux couches plissées et fracturées. La protection s’appuie sur deux échelles de limites. D’une part un ensemble de 18 sites géologiques sur lesquels l’extraction et le ramassage de toute forme fossile sont interdits. D’autre part une vaste zone de protection étendue sur 59 communes où l’extraction des fossiles est interdite et le ramassage des formes naturellement dégagées est toléré, s’il est pratiqué en quantité limitée. Parmi les géotopes mis en valeur, on peut citer la dalle à ammonites des Isnards à Digne, les sites fossilifères à ichtyosaures de La Robine ou le site à siréniens du ravin de Tabori à Taulanne.
