Ecrins National Park

Ecrins National Park

Spurred on by mountaineers, naturalists and foresters, the creation of the Ecrins National Park dates back to 1913.

With its prestigious peaks: the Barre des Ecrins (4,102 m) and the Meije (3,983 m), the National Park is considered Europe's high-mountain park. Over 400 species of vertebrates frequent the area, including chamois, ibex, marmots, golden eagle and black grouse. The wealth of flora is equally impressive: larches, dwarf junipers and rhododendrons flourish alongside rare or spectacular flowers such as the Alpine queen, Dauphiné potentilla and woolly bergamot.

This diversity also characterizes the cultural identity of each valley, including Valgaudemar, where our organic high mountain honey comes from.
