A wild fondue, a drink in a yurt, a night in a snowy teepee or a stay in a tiny house... Valloire Galibier<\/a> cultivates a different idea of winter travel, one that's more intimate, more sensory. Here's a look at four interludes to add to your list. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A fondue, wherever you want it <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For lovers of melted cheese and impromptu lunches, the first thing you'll want is the \u00abJean-Claude Duss\u00bb rucksack, designed by Kosa Kruta. The principle is simple: everything you need for a fondue is slipped into a bag ready to set off on an adventure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stove, fondue pot, Beaufort cheese, Valloire tomme, bread, white wine, tablecloth, cushions... all that's left to do is choose your spot, in a hamlet, in a clearing or even on the slopes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Available as a kit or in a more gourmet formula with cold meats and a fizzy drink, this nomadic fondue transforms a simple meal into a real moment of exploration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The little extra: a free thermos of hot coffee with every order. Prices start from \u20ac15 per person, booking the day before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Snowshoeing at dusk, aperitif in a yurt<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At dusk, head for the S\u00e9taz massif for an easy snowshoe hike. The snow crunches under your feet, silence settles in... and then a yurt nestles at the foot of the Rocher Saint-Pierre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inside, a cosy atmosphere awaits walkers as they enjoy an aperitif of local cheeses and charcuterie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suitable for people aged 8 and over, this outing combines gentle effort with a friendly atmosphere, giving you a real sense of isolation without being physically involved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An ideal way to discover the mountains in a different way, away from the hustle and bustle of the snow fronts. Price: \u20ac32 per adult, \u20ac25 for 6-15 year-olds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sleeping in a tipi, in the heart of winter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For those dreaming of a night out of the ordinary, head for the hamlet of Bonnenuit, at the foot of the Col du Galibier. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here, \u00abL'Insolite de Pierre Rouge\u00bb offers total immersion under the stars. a tepee heated by a wood-burning stove<\/a>. All around: snow, summits, starry skies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inside: six beds, simple but warm comfort, and above all that rare feeling of being alone in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The experience will appeal to lovers of authenticity, looking for a cocooning version of a bivouac. It costs \u20ac90 per night for two people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spending the winter in a tiny house<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One last idea for extending your stay: the tiny houses at the Sainte-Th\u00e8cle campsite. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These little wooden houses, straight from the USA, offer 24 m\u00b2 of perfectly optimised space, with a mezzanine, fitted kitchen, modern shower room and large windows to the outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designed to sleep from one to four people, they combine contemporary comfort with a natural feel, in a peaceful setting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attractive alternative to traditional accommodation, for a rejuvenating winter break. Prices start at \u20ac455 per week.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
