It is the starting point for splendid hiking itineraries, such as the one that reaches the Albergh lakes.<\/p>\n<p>In the close vicinity of the hamlet is a famous beech wood, a &#8216;bandita&#8217; that protects houses from avalanches for centuries. The uncomfortable living conditions led in the 1980s to the complete abandonment of Palanfr\u00e8 in winter. A situation that changed again in the early 2000s, when two families of breeders from the area returned to live permanently in the hamlet all year round. Today, Palanfr\u00e8 offers visitors a hotel-refuge and a cheese factory selling high quality alpine cheeses.<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\"
