Ice Climbing

In the summer the area is well know for it’s amazing waterfalls. However, these waterfalls freeze in the winter months and offer superb ice climbing. The ice climbing is second to none with one of the best climbs in Europe.

Snow Shoeing

Walking with snow shoes is an excellent way to experience the beauty of the mountains and of reaching areas usually made inaccessible by the snow. The cirque makes an excellent walking area, it’s frozen waterfalls are stunning and well worth a visit.

Dog Sledging

This traditional method of transportation is an incredible experience. The wide valley floor is perfect, you can rush along the snow, though the woods and the vast snowy fields.

If sport is not your thing…………………

You are perfectly situated to experience the best towns and traditions the alps has to offer.
There are traditional cheese making farms near by where you can see how cheese is made traditionally. There are wine caves, were you can test the local wines.

If you like shopping there are boutiques in near by Samoens, and also Geneva and Annecy. Annecy is a beautiful old town and well worth a visit. It is nicked named “ Venice of the Alps”, owing to the network of canals that run through the town.
