Mountain guide Virginie welcomes you to her summer garden at Chalet d'la Croë*, offering Savoyard recipes based on local produce (evening bookings only) and the chance to sleep under the stars.
There are three ways to do this:
- rent a single pitch and bring your own camping gear
- rent a pitch with a tent, mattress and comforter
- reserve a geodesic dome with a real bed for an unusual night's sleep
Beware: at 2000 m altitude, nights are chilly.
On-site chickens, goats, dogs and sometimes cows!
Accommodation is located outside the chalet.
There are :
- Three geodesic domes:
2 five-place domes (two double beds and one single bed)
1 three-place dome (one large double bed)
They are unheated and not shared with others for your privacy. The front of the domes has a beautiful view of the Belledonne mountain range.
- An area for bivouacs and overnight stays in tents
Overnight stays include dinner and breakfast on a half-board basis.
The evening meal is a unique "home-made" menu or a Savoyard Fondue menu on reservation (supplement of 4€/pers for adults).
There's an outdoor toilet block, as well as dry toilets and a drinking water point. Crocs are available. To save water, showers are only available for two-day stays.
For all overnight stays, and for reasons of hygiene, each guest must bring a sheet or meat bag and a pillowcase (square). Blankets are available in the domes.
Domes are available from 4pm and must be vacated by 10am.
