In High Champsaur, with the heart of the national park of the parc des Ecrins, Orcières is a large borough fixed on the sides of a hill.
The amateurs of architecture will be able to recognize the typical "house orciéroise"; of square form, with a pinion wall for principal frontage and a home on two levels, it is made hardcores out of stone of the country, with a frame of wood covered formerly with slates but generally today of sheets or shingles.
At the ground floor, kitchen being next to the stable, on the floor, on a floor in larch, the room… and the barn, men and animals living formerly together to be heated!
Hamlet of character and departure of excursions, Prapic blottit at the bottom of the valley of Black Drac, far, well far from the great transportation routes. Its arable lands are remarkable by the heaps of stones laid out in edge of piece by the peasants. Not to miss its small "museum by the Breakage", which presents a collection of objects of the everyday life telling the trades of formerly.
Orcières Merlette, station built in the Sixties on the heights of Black Drac, offers today all the pleasures of slips: from the Alpine skiing to the ski touring while passing, more original, by the ski joering tractor drawn by a horse!
