Whether you are an elite cyclist, a novice triathlete or a hiking enthusiast, at an altitude of 1200m and based in the heart of the French Alps, Chalet le 4 is ideally located to serve as the base for your training camp or outdoor holiday.
With the Aravis mountain chain as a backdrop and located at the foot of the Col de la Colombière, anyone looking for some challenging terrain to enjoy the outdoors need not go far! However, the ‘Vallée du Bouchet’ itself is a relatively flat valley allowing for an easy ride or hike back to Chalet le 4 or an excellent opportunity to enjoy a run or walk without too much climbing and descending.
Both avid athletes, the owners of Chalet le 4 and your hosts Eva and Piet Hein, have developed and built Chalet le 4 with sportive people in mind. When staying in Chalet le 4 you will find that not only the on-site facilities have been tailored to meet all demands of outdoor and sports enthusiasts, but also the catering and the accommodation itself will enable you to make the most out of your training camp or sportive holiday.
