Pralognan la Vanoise

150 years of history make it a mythical mountain village, in the heart of the Grande Casse and at the foot of the Massif de la Vanoise.

Our pretty village in the Savoie is busy all year round. Mountain tourism in both winter and summer, sporting and family activities available with good facilities.

Winter sports, trekking, mountaineering, the GR55 hiking route is a real paradise – or simply rest. Whatever your expectations they will be met.

Capital of the first French National Park created in 1963, and the Olympic village for the 1992 Albertville Olympic Games, a number of the athletes unpacked their bags and settled there.

Proud of its many world champions from Pralognan, starting with Michel Vion in 1982 (combined alpine skiing), Sébastien Amiez in 1996 (slalom), Cédrik Tomio in 2004 (mountaineering) there’s no shortage of anecdotes about these local “children”.

Ideally located at the foot of 107 glaciers and mountain peaks with exceptional and rigorously protected fauna and flora.

Its charm and lifestyle are the equal of the prestigious resorts found between Courchevel and La Plagne that surround it.

Kindness and hospitality are in the local DNA. Shopkeepers will welcome you with a wide, frank and sincere smile. Concerned about preserving and transmitting true values in a world that is losing them, they are driven by simplicity, sharing and passion.

Pralognan la Vanoise is perfect for all types of people because you are all welcome!
