*It is important to note that accessing the chalet involves a journey of over 2 km through forest trails. A steep incline may make access difficult, especially in winter. However, this poses no issue with a 4x4 vehicle. That's why the use of a 4x4 vehicle is mandatory in winter. (You have the option to book a shuttle service 24 hours before your arrival, for an additional fee, which includes secure parking for your own vehicle). Towing fees of $500 are required if needed. Shuttle service is also available from the train station and the airport (fees apply).

Winter tires are mandatory from November to April 15th.

The outdoor hammock on the terrace is designed for a maximum of two people.

***Be careful with the stairs inside and outside the chalet, as they are very steep. Climb or descend them slowly and cautiously.
