Complementary services

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.
