The main bakery is a 10-minute walk from the chalet, where you will find an impressive selection of fresh breads, local cakes and sandwich options. Access to the valley’s network of mountain trails can also be easily reached from the chalet, allowing great summer outings on foot or by bike.

It is possible to use the valley’s bus network to reach the various ski resorts, the closest bus stop being a short 5-minute walk. If you are visiting with a car, the Brevent lift is a 5-minute drive, the Flegere and Les Houches lifts a 10-minute drive and the famous Grand Montet lift a 20 minute drive away. The chalet is also well positioned to visit resorts further away, such as Courmayeur in Italie with the use of the Mont Blanc tunnel, itself a short 10-minute drive from the chalet.
