Explore La Vanoise : A Nature Immersion in Savoie with Clévacances
Nested between the Tarentaise and Maurienne valleys, in the heart of Savoie, La Vanoise is a land of wide open spaces and unspoilt nature. Created in 1963, the Vanoise National Park was France's very first national park. Even today, it attracts hikers, families and mountain lovers in search of relaxation, silence and raw beauty. With Clévacances, take advantage of comfortable, quality-labelled accommodation to discover this exceptional area.
An exceptional Alpine setting
The Vanoise landscapes stretch over almost 1,500 km² of valleys, peaks and glaciers. Between mountain pastures, forests, high-altitude lakes and craggy peaks, the park offers a spectacular setting to explore in every season. It is also home to some remarkable wildlife: ibex, chamois, marmots, golden eagles and bearded vultures can all be spotted along the trails. A destination that is both grandiose and peaceful, where nature reigns supreme.
Nature activities all year round
In summer, hiking is king: the park offers dozens of signposted itineraries for all levels, from family walks to major traverses. In winter, the landscape is covered in snow and winter sports take over. Ski touring, snowshoeing, Nordic walking... the villages around the park become veritable base camps for those who love the glide or the snowy silence.
It's also an ideal place for families: educational trails, wildlife observation zones and nature workshops allow children to discover the mountains in a fun way.
Stay in the Vanoise with Clévacances
To make the most of your stay in the heart of the park, Clévacances offers gîtes and bed and breakfasts located right next to the natural sites. Whether you opt for a typical chalet, a stone house or a cosy room in the home of a local, you'll benefit from comfortable, approved accommodation that meets Clévacances quality standards.
After a day of exploring, you'll appreciate the comfort of warm accommodation, the expert advice of your host and the soothing atmosphere of accommodation designed to recharge your batteries. Bonus: breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains or valleys!
A gourmet destination
It's impossible to stay in Savoie without sampling the local specialities. In the surrounding villages, the restaurants and inns will treat you to generous dishes: Savoyard fondue, tartiflette, croziflette, diots, Savoy tomme... So many authentic flavours to enjoy after a busy day at altitude.
A living mountain culture
The Vanoise is more than just nature: it's also a culture rooted in the mountains. Throughout the year, events punctuate local life: village festivals, farmers' markets, festivals and nature outings organised by the park's guides. In summer, the Festival de la Vanoise celebrates Alpine traditions, with concerts, folk dancing, open-air screenings and meetings with craftspeople.
