Thèmes

• Services for children : Books and games available.

• Sustainable tourism : Committed to an eco-responsible approach, the establishment combines several solutions to limit its environmental impact while offering comfort and quality. Electricity is generated by photovoltaic panels, water is treated by a high-performance plant, and heating relies on natural gas, which is more respectful than other fossil fuels. When it comes to food, local produce is chosen to complement the on-site vegetable garden, while composting reduces and recycles organic waste.

• Conditions of access for motorized vehicles : Access via the Lededian parking lot on the Route des Saix, or the parking lot at the bottom of the Cascades trail in Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval.
