Hi  thinking of going this year.Take a look at this web site for campsites

http://www.provenceweb.fr/e/groupes/verdon/campings.htm

We want to stop round about Castellanne . We can see loads of sites, but I'm worried about travelling on mountain roads in case we make a wrong turn or get stuck somehow. Does anyone know what the roads are like round this area?

Is it better to approach from one direction rather than another? I've got a map and there are loads of wiggly turns (bad roads in my book) which ever way I look

No problems with the roads, just take it steady and enjoy the superb mountain views.  If you want a quiet site try the Provencal, north out of Castellane, on the left just past the larger Camping International. If returning north, use the N75 Sisteron Grenoble route over the gradual climb of the Col de la Croix Haute. ( The Route Napoleon N85 uses the Col Bayard just North of Gap which is not recommended for caravans travelling northwards. (sharpest of sharp hairpins),
