The first snow of winter and what a view from Chalet La Luge, La Tzoumaz

Winter

Accommodation is offered on a weekly half board basis: breakfast, afternoon tea and elegant 5 course dinner with wine 6 nights a week. Use of the outside hottub and the sauna.

We recommend flying into either Geneva or Sion. Sion is a mere 25 minutes, but flights can be tricky to come by – Ski Flights might have some though. Geneva is about an hour and a half by car, the easiest route though, is to take the train direct from the airport to Martigny and we’ll pick you up from there, only 20-25 minutes from Chalet La Luge. Alternatively we’re happy to help arrange transfers.

The skiing and boarding options are legendary. With good snow cover it is possible to ski back to the chalet, although some beginners may decide not to! It is only a 10 minute walk to the nearest lifts - either

Fancy a change? - get out on a pair of snowshoes and take a hike into the mountains away from the crowds. A sport that is increasing in popularity year on year which is no surprise. You can wander at your leisure or take a guide.

Sledging. La Tzoumaz has a fantastic 10km sledge run and is something everyone should do when they’re here!

The swimming pool is open and there’s ice skating at the outdoor rink.
