Eco-friendly shower gel

Since this winter, we have a new eco-friendly shower gel at Chalet Solneige.

ETHOSA is a start-up of 2 ambitious entrepreneurs who have developed an eco-friendly shower gel. To avoid disposable flasks, and transporting lots of water (90% of ordinary shower gel), Gaëlle and Oli supply their shower gel in the form of a powder. We mix that with Vaujany water, add Ethosa essential oil, and fill the aluminium flasks for you.

A small step to help make the world more environmental-friendly.

Marmotte exclusive

Marmotte exclusive: Solneige guests only 

On Saturday the 3rd of September, Chalet Solneige will organise an exclusive Marmotte race. This race is exclusive to Chalet Solneige guests. 

The race will follow the same route as the Granfondo Marmotte race in June: Col de Glandon, Col de Telegraph, Col de Galibier, Col de Lautaret and finally the Alpe d’Huez, atotal of 174 kilometres (108 miles). An alternative is available for those who prefer a less challenging course. The alternative skips the final climb of the Alpe duez and finishes in Bourg d’Oisans.

Clos Giraud lift has been renewed

After the renewal of the Montfrais lift, the Clos Giraud lift has now also been updated.
The Clos Giraud lift between Montfrais and Alpette is now a so-called télémixte;
alternating chairs and gondolas. The lift has been extended and now starts at
Montfrais, and is much faster than the old lift.
