France has 11 national parks and nature reserves, accounting for about 10% of the country’s total area. They are home to many rare plants and animals. The two national parks in the Alps in eastern France are the Vanoise National Park and the Ecrins National Park.

The Vanoise National Park was established in 1963 and is the first national park in France. It is a sister park with the Grand Paradiso National Park in Italy, sharing a 14-kilometer border. Vanoise National Park is located in the province of Savoie, with a diverse geological environment, including mountains with an altitude of more than 3,000 meters and open river valleys. The original glaciers are still preserved. Due to the special terrain and climatic environment, there are about 2,000 animal species and more than 2,400 plant species in the Vanoise National Park.

The Ecoland National Park in the southern Alps was awarded the title of “European Alpine Park” by the European Commission. There are 150 mountains above 3000 meters above sea level and about 10,000 hectares of glaciers. Traveling here, you can see the vast mountain pastures and distinctive valleys. The charming pastoral scenery softens the wild beauty of the mountains and brings shocking visual effects.

These two parks in the Alps are a paradise for hikers. The park has launched a series of hiking routes in accordance with the four seasons, age groups and different exercise intensities. From hiking for the whole family for children to high-intensity training for outdoor sports enthusiasts, you can find a suitable route here to enjoy the Alps. Close contact.

What is rare is that these two parks are very close to famous ski resorts, such as Chamonix, Courchevel, Megeve, Meribel, etc. The snow season of higher altitude ski resorts can last until the end of March or even later . Come here in summer. June to July is when the lavender is in full bloom in the southern part of the French Oroa region, where the park is located, and the vast sea of ​​purple flowers covers the entire valley.

Every November, step on the squeaky leaves from the park and drive 40 minutes to the Beaujolais area. Don’t forget to taste a glass of new wine before heading to Peruges to experience the authentic medieval French town .
