Trail in the heart of the wide open spaces of Orcières

What could be more exotic than a trail outing in an exceptional, unspoilt environment? Orcières Merlette’s 13 trail routes will delight sports and nature lovers. The mountain pastures of Orcières Merlette are full of exceptional routes, alternating between fairly technical high altitude sections, rolling sections through the hamlets and superb singles skirting the lakes and torrents of Orcières.

Orcières Trail Area Spectacular routes

Take a stroll along our trails and discover what makes Orcières so special: an incredible variety of landscapes, around twenty hamlets where you can rediscover our history, and a multitude of high mountain pastures, peaks and lakes where you can recharge your batteries. The Espace Trail d’Orcières is in the heart of and on the edge of the Ecrins National Park. A national park is an area recognised as exceptional for the richness of its biodiversity, the quality of its landscapes and its cultural heritage. We ask you to behave impeccably on our trails.

Departing from 3 “gateways”: Base de loisirs, Prapic and Orcières Merlette, the Espace Trail d’Orcières is a real invitation to discovery for everyone, from beginners to expert runners. Finally, for mountain runners who like to push themselves to the limit, Orcières organises the Trail des Lacs, a weekend of races with a route for every level. It’s up to you…!
