À Saint-Martin-de-BellevilleWinter is not just about skiing. Nestling in the heart of the 3 Valleys, the Savoyard village cultivates the art of offering its visitors a total immersion in nature, between timeless interludes, unusual adventures and well-being.
A break at Refuge du Trait d'Union
Perched at an altitude of 1,725 metres, the Refuge du Trait d'Union can be reached on foot or snowshoes from the village.
Away from the hustle and bustle of the slopes, it welcomes guests for a cosy night of candlelight around a wood-burning stove. A simple, authentic experience, enhanced by the magic of a snowy evening in the mountains.
Dog sled rides
On the banks of the River Doron, musher Dany shares his passion for the great outdoors by offering dog-sledding lessons.
Young and old alike will discover the joys of an ancestral form of sliding in the heart of snow-covered forests. The breath of the dogs, the crunch of the skates on the snow and the silence of the mountains are unforgettable memories.
