My desire for the mountains

Here, we live outside. Whether you’re here to climb, walk, pedal, paddle or just breathe deeply, you’ve come to the right place. That’s what the mountain spirit is all about: moving, being amazed, sharing simple but intense moments, and feeling alive.

Between outdoor activities, micro-adventures just a stone’s throw from your accommodation, nature spots that slam and events that make your heart beat faster, the Pays des Écrins invites you to reconnect with what really matters. Ready to follow your desires?

Do you come to ski, to walk in the snow, to sit by the fire or just to feel the cold that stings your cheeks? Perfect, you’ve come to the right place.

The mountains in winter are not just holidays: they are friends, descents, calming silences , slamming landscapes , and simple moments that feel good.
No need to make a fuss, it’s all there.

Between the slopes, snowshoeing, small hidden restaurants, sunbathing on the terrace or big breaths of fresh air, Pelvoux-Vallouise, Puy Saint Vincent and Freissinières welcome you from December to April. Come as you are and let yourself be carried away.
