An authentic valley<\/em>In the heart of the National Park<\/h2><\/div>\n\n

Dormillouse<\/h2><\/div>\n\n

Dormillouse is a timeless hamlet perched at about 1,700 m<\/strong>, the only permanently inhabited place in the heart of the \u00c9crins National Park<\/strong>. It can only be reached on foot by a path (allow an hour of ascent from the Cascades car park in summer), which makes it an intimate and preserved refuge<\/strong>. Its traditional architecture, adapted to the slope and avalanches, testifies to an ancestral know-how of installation in the high mountains; there is also a history<\/strong> marked by the resistance of the Waldensians and the commitment of Pastor F\u00e9lix Neff in the nineteenth century, who preached there and contributed to community life. Dormillouse is home to two emblematic refuges<\/strong> \u2013 the Refuge de l’Oncle \u00c9mile<\/strong> (at 1,727 m) and the Refuge de l’\u00c9cole<\/strong> \u2013 which allow you to extend the immersion, and serves as the starting point for the famous loop of lakes Faravel and Palluel<\/strong> offering panoramas of the mountain pastures and the valley. This silent sanctuary combines heritage, raw nature and authentic hospitality. <\/p>\n\n
