Parc national de La Vanoise
The massif de La Vanoise is located in the Alps, between the valleys of Maurienne and Tarentaise, in Savoie. This high-mountain territory stands out for its spectacular landscapes: 107 peaks rising above 3,000 metres, vast alpine pastures, glaciers, and deep valleys.
❤️👍 Naturally protective
Created in 1963 to protect endangered species, the Parc national de La Vanoise covers 53,000 hectares of preserved natural environment. It shares a 14 km border with Italy's Gran Paradiso National Park and is home to 1,200 protected species.
The park includes around forty mountain refuges and 500 km of marked trails, making it ideal for exploring on foot. To discover the richness of this biodiversity in images, watch the video 'Debout les marmottes', produced by the Parc de La Vanoise.
