House of Heritage and Environment
Chamrousse enjoys an exceptional environment and today the Environment Centre is waiting for you to present you all facets of it through its exhibitions!
Since the summer of 2018, the chalet of Recoin in Chamrousse, former refuge of the French Alpine Club (CAF) and 1st guarded refuge of France since 1911, has been rehabilitated in the Environment and heritage Centre of Chamrousse with a reception and exhibition space.
Next to the Environment Centre, at the gateway to the great natural areas of Belledonne, you can discover an educational trail where pastoralism, fauna and flora, beekeeping and sustainable development will be presented to you with the specific characteristics of Chamrousse.
