Watching marmots in Vanoise National Park

The Vanoise National Park is a vast natural area created to protect mountain flora and fauna. Family-friendly activities include: exceptional walks and hikes where you can spot marmots, particularly in the Orgère Valley, right across from the resort.

Why it's perfect for families

The Orgère Discovery Trail is stroller-friendly. Accessible trails for a leisurely exploration of the mountains.

What kids love

  • Watch the marmots as they play and whistle when you approach
  • Streams and waterfalls

Note that

Stay on the marked trails: trampling the alpine meadows limits grass growth, and thus the food supply for herds and wildlife.

You can get there by car or by direct shuttle from the station.
