5 reasons to stay at Le Refuge de la Traye

Reconnecting with nature
In an isolated spot at an altitude of 1650 metres, Le Refuge de la Traye is a little hamlet comprised of authentic mountain chalets snuggling in a natural setting free of any disturbances. Renovated with respect for traditions and the codes of luxury hospitality, Le Refuge de la Traye offers 6 Rooms and Suites allowing about 15 privileged guests to enjoy a memorable experience surrounded by nature. This exclusive little corner of paradise for initiates, nestling at the heart of Les 3 Vallées, thus guarantees a sense of escapism and total disconnection. All in a spirit of eco-responsibility with, among other things, the use of short-circuit produce and the installation of beehives on the estate.

 

Benefitting from excellent service 
Le Refuge de la Traye is the first high-end refuge in the French Alps. In winter, when guests arrive, they are welcomed with cups of delicious hot chocolate served directly from the cauldron. Along with ultra-personalized service provided by a discreet and passionate team, such delicate attentions accompany each stay at Le Refuge. Amenities are prestigious: privatization of the hamlet, an independent suite, a gourmet restaurant, panoramic terrace, hi-tech spa, heated outdoor infinity pool, a movie lounge, cigar cellar, boutique, bespoke experiences… Le Refuge de la Traye fulfills all your dreams.

 

Taking (real) care of yourself
In medi-spa spirit, the Spa at Le Refuge de la Traye proposes exceptional hi-tech care (Vivace, Hydrafacial, Iyashi Dôme, Mostleds etc.), often unprecedented at high altitudes. The list also offers care rituals signed by exclusive brands such as Biologique Recherche and Verso. Looking for an authentic experience of well-being? Treat yourself to a Montagne du Refuge treatment (milk bath, a bed made of hay, relaxation massage) inspired by ancestral practices of Tyrolian farmers. Enjoying spectacular views of the surrounding mountains, Le Spa du Refuge is the ideal spot for recharging your batteries. 

 

Savouring the gastronomy of Savoy 
Occasionally retweaked, but always prepared with local and seasonal products of quality, flavours recalling the mountains come alive at Chef Dominique Nouvian's Table de la Traye. Local specialities include essential raclettes and fondues, but also pan-fried veal cutlet, Arctic char with squash puree by the fire, or Les Crozets in risotto style with Beaufort cheese and white truffles. While guests readily settle down near the fireplace in the dining-room on cold winter days, they take advantage of the arrival of fine weather on the panoramic terrace overlooking the valley. An enchanting place for sharing pizzas from the wood fire or grills from the barbecue. La Ferme à Fromages - which can be privatized - will meet all your wishes for warm meals with family or friends with its sampling menu for cheeses, cold meats and wines, in a typical Savoyard ambiance.

 

Embracing the joys of the mountains 
Rope parks, zip-lines, archery or rifle shooting… Many activities are possible within easy reach of Le Refuge de la Traye. The most daring will appreciate excursions on snowshoes or snow scooters, hiking or electric mountain biking to explore the surrounding area and get a real feel for the mountains. The hotel's youngest guests are not forgotten, with a play area built of wood and a pedagogic farm at Le Refuge, plus a programme of activities of all kinds: toboggan rides, treasure hunts, but also pastry or pottery workshops. In both winter and summer, there's no need to leave Le Refuge de la Traye if you're looking for fun!
