Landscape
Saint-Vincent-sur-Jabron lies in the Jabron Valley on the Jabron mountain stream. The village is surrounded by the Montagne de Lure, the Montagne de Mare, the Montagne de Saint-Michel and the Montagne de Pélegrine.
Nature
At the Jardins des papillons, visitors can discover the butterflies of the Jabron Valley free of charge and outdoors; the area is freely accessible.
The Jardins des papillons are a space dedicated to protecting biodiversity at the foot of the old church of Saint-Vincent-sur-Jabron. They were created in 2014 by the Proserpine association in partnership with the municipal administration of Saint-Vincent-sur-Jabron.
