Embrun is a town in the Hautes-Alpes, set above the Durance between Alpine peaks and the shores of Lake Serre-Ponçon. Its old centre has lanes, squares and historic façades; life here moves at the pace of a small mountain town, with shops and a market popular with local residents. The region attracts visitors interested in heritage as well as those who come to walk, enjoy the scenery or relax by the water.

From hotel le tourisme, Embrun railway station is 150 m away and provides rail connections to the town. Embrun market is 170 m away, and Notre-Dame-du-Réal Cathedral is 390 m away: this old church overlooks the centre and is worth a visit for its architecture. The Couvent des Cordeliers, 120 m away, also bears witness to local history. For a summer outing by the water, L’Estang Beach is 1.9 km away. The surrounding area gives you access to the scenery of Écrins National Park and the Alpine hiking routes.

In spring and summer, the days are well suited to walks around town, mountain excursions and activities around Lake Serre-Ponçon. In autumn, the colours of the valleys and peaks change, while the trails remain a good way to discover the scenery when conditions allow. In winter, the resorts of the Hautes-Alpes attract snow lovers; it is best to plan your journeys according to the weather and altitude. You can spend a day combining a visit to the old centre with an outing by the lake, followed by a chance to discover the Alpine panoramas.
