Unspoilt nature
The attraction of this geographical region lies in the beauty of its landscapes, which are a blend of high mountains and Provençal scenery. Unique, magical locations offer breathtaking views, including the Ecrins and Queyras regional parks, Lake Serre-Ponçon and the Verdon Gorge. The Southern Alps abound with natural treasures for you to discover or revisit.
A wild playground
Summer or winter, the almost untamed nature of the Southern Alps is the ideal setting for sporting activities:
- the rapids are the destination of choice for kayaks, rafts and hydro-speeds;
- the mountain plateaux, paths and tracks are the arena for hikers;
- the high peaks are home to the resorts (Isola 200, Par Loup, Val d’Allos, Orcières, etc.) for winter sports lovers.
