Embrun to Hauterives Les Ecrin and the Palais Ideal

We head north towards La Grave only to be turned back because the passes are still closed and there are roadworks on the main road. We end up back tracking and end up going through Italy and the Frejeus tunnel.  We arrive in Hauterives Les Ecrin.



  This small town has an unusual tourist attraction.  The Palais Ideal is a folly.  Built by a postman called Cheval it is a bizarre building made of stone and shells.
