Sentiero escursionistico del Lac de la Partie

Next to a magnificent forest of conifers (some 700 years old), the refuge of the Vanoise National Park welcomes everyone (especially the motor and visually handicapped) and informs them about the national park. It is a stage of the GR5.

Fermata dell'autobus N°909: "Orgère" nel comune di Villarodin-Bourget via Saint-André. Questa fermata serve l'omonimo rifugio e gli itinerari escursionistici del Parco Nazionale della Vanoise.

The Orgère valley is closed off to the north by the Aiguille Doran and the Râteau d'Aussois, close to this "place where barley is grown" (hence the word "Orgère"). The gateway to the Vanoise National Park on the GR5, the site is the starting point for many hikes.While walking, it is not uncommon to see ibexes on the side of the Aiguille Doran, as well as marmots along the Povaret stream. You walk (depending on the season) in the middle of an immense carpet of flowers, each one more exceptional than the other. Everyone can find their ideal walk, whether families with prams, people wishing to discover the valley with a guide or the more sporty ones wishing to cross passes. Ask at the Tourist Office of La Norma or in the mountain huts.

Primo Parco Nazionale francese istituito nel 1963, svolge compiti di protezione (natura, piante e specie animali, degli habitat e delle risorse naturali), la conoscenza, la consapevolezza e l'educazione ambientale.
