Hautes Alpes

Natural Wonders and Biodiversity

Discover the rich biodiversity of the Parc National des Ecrins, home to rare wildlife such as eagles and chamois. With over 1,800 varieties of French flora, this park is a botanist's dream. The Parc Regional du Queras, established in 1977, features idyllic villages like St Vern, adorned with traditional chalets and sundials. At the end of the Drac Valley, you'll find the breathtaking Saut de Laire waterfall, and at Le Gioberney, the 'Cascade du Voile de la Mariee' or Bride's veil waterfall awaits.

Architectural and Historical Highlights

Briançon, Europe's highest town, showcases Vauban's military genius through its fortified structures. Embrun's 12th-century Cathedral of Notre-Dame-du-Real houses a collection of religious artefacts considered the fourth most important in France. The dominant architectural style here is Romanesque, evident in the region's historical buildings.

Outdoor Activities and Leisure

From the man-made marvel of Serre-Ponçon Lake to the natural gorges in the Buëch, Hautes Alpes offers a plethora of outdoor activities.
