From the Chalet door to the Navette

Skiers click into their skis via the ski room exit, and slide down the field to the bus-stop.

Non-skiers can either use snow shoes on this direct line, or walk on the road from the back terrace of the chalet, which is 100m in total.

Without the car all the week

We never use the car because we like the adventure of skiing back to the door, but for non-skiers the last bus is around 19.30, so it is possible to enjoy Après-ski in Hauteluce or Les Saisies, before heading back to the door. Then bunk down, and enjoy the chalet comforts when the night gets really cold.
