Castelnau-Rivière-Basse is a commune in the Hautes-Pyrénées department in south-western France. The commune shares its name with the village that lies within its boundaries.

The actual village of Castelnau-Rivière-Basse stands on top of a hill above the main D935 road, although drivers on that road pass signs incorrectly indicating that they are entering and leaving the village. In late 2010 a local resident installed an improvised sign, hanging below the official 'leaving Castelnau-Riviere-Basse' road sign on the southbound direction on the D935, advising that the right turn up to the village itself is 800 metres distant. This has now been removed.
