Samoens | Chalet L’Echappée

Description

Nestled in the heart of the mountains, L’échappée is a new construction that pays tribute to the charm and history of the ancient mountain villages. From its winding inner street that meanders between the dwellings to its architecture that blends seamlessly with its surroundings – with a stone-style foundation, wooden frame and cladding and a picturesque gable roof – L’échappée is a true ode to the traditional chalets of the area, some of which date back to the 19th century.

Perched atop a hill and surrounded by lush forests, L’échappée is a haven of tranquillity and natural beauty. From its peaceful location, you can embark on a breathtaking hike to the Criou mounts or simply sit back and soak up the serenity of your surroundings. With a bike path and a free ski bus available all year round, L’échappée is just a stone’s throw from the historic centre of Samoëns and the charming village of Morillon.

But L’échappée is more than just a stunning retreat – it’s a place to truly escape the stresses of everyday life and reconnect with nature. Whether you’re seeking adventure or relaxation, L’échappée is the perfect place to rejuvenate and recharge your batteries.
