All-inclusive hiking holidays

© All-inclusive hiking holidays_Châtel - Village vacances le Gîte

Treat yourself to a rejuvenating mountain break! Nature, well-being and conviviality await you! A program of hikes will be defined with the guide, according to your wishes and the level of the group.

Description

It's possible that one or more of the village's farms will "emmontagner", i.e. move with their herds to a high altitude alpine farm. It's a milestone in the life of the farm, a real move as the herd settles for 4 to 5 months in the more precarious and isolated dwellings of the alpine pastures. To mark the occasion, the cows are given a makeover, decorated with flowers and driven through the village with the tinkling of their "sonnailles", the bells around their necks. As the date of each farm's "emmontagnée" depends on the winter and early spring weather, it will only be known towards the end of April.

All rooms were renovated between 2018 and 2022: spacious, hair-dryer-equipped bathrooms, soundproofing, new bedding.
A hearty and varied picnic buffet to keep you going until you return from your hike. Zero-waste packed lunches with our reusable kits on loan.
In the evenings, seasonal home cooking awaits you to recharge your batteries and enjoy local specialities.
A friendly, attentive atmosphere in which to appreciate the gentle way of life here.
