THE SOLALEX REFUGE IN WINTER
Martin and his team amaze their guests. After a short snowmobile ride through the snowy forest or a snowshoe walk, you are greeted by a crackling fire, a cheerful atmosphere and the exquisite smell of food.
Among the many cheese-based dishes on the refuge's menu, try the famous wood-fired raclette, oven-baked Mont-d'Or PDO or tomato fondue.
After your delicious meal, make your way back down on foot or by snowmobile, as you wish.
