Embrun is a multi sport mecca, from the watersports options to a multitude of mountain activities within the region. The old town's architecture and character has been preserved and its traffic-free streets are a great place to explore.

May 26, 2022,Station des Orres

The perfect tour when there is a risk of thunderstorms: if the worst comes to the worst, you can turn around and be back down quickly. The views were magnificent again, the architecture of the hotel buildings at the station was stunning, the restaurant was closed (as expected).
