With so much snow lying around, isn’t it a good idea to book quickly for the February holidays?
During the week of 18 – 25 February 2023, we still have availability in the rooms at Chalet Solneige.
Special price €695 (was €805) per person for a week’s accommodation on a half-board basis.
After a warm start to 2023, it is now winter in Vaujany.
During the Christmas holidays, skiing was fortunately still fine on the higher slopes.
A thick layer of snow fell in January, so winter has now really started.
Outside the holiday weeks, at the end of January we will host the Swiss team participating in the European Cup Slalom. Vaujany has had an internationally qualified slalom slope for a few years now. Therefore, Vaujany hosts regular ski competitions.
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.
