Oursire – located in Villard De Lans (38 km from The Abbey of Valcroissant)

Emilie's opinion

I love the atmosphere in Villard-de-Lans for a family holiday in the mountains! 🏔️ L’Oursière is just 600 m from the village centre, while still offering a peaceful setting in the heart of the Vercors.

In winter, the kids will love it: skiing, sledging, walks in the snow… there’s plenty to keep everyone busy all day! ❄️ And after making the most of the great outdoors, there’s nothing better than coming back to the campsite and slipping into the indoor heated swimming pool. 😊

What I love most about L’Oursière is its friendly, family atmosphere. It’s the kind of small campsite where you quickly feel at home and leave with wonderful family memories. ❤️
