Orgère Valley

The Orgère valley is closed off to the north by the Aiguille Doran and the Râteau d'Aussois, close to this "place where barley is grown" (hence the word "Orgère").
The gateway to the Vanoise National Park on the GR5, the site is the starting point for many hikes.

About

Villarodin-Bourget (73500)
Animals not allowed

While walking, it is not uncommon to see ibexes on the side of the Aiguille Doran, as well as marmots along the Povaret stream. You walk (depending on the season) in the middle of an immense carpet of flowers, each one more exceptional than the other.
Everyone can find their ideal walk, whether families with prams, people wishing to discover the valley with a guide or the more sporty ones wishing to cross passes.
Ask at the Tourist Office of La Norma or in the mountain huts.
