In the summer months there are 10 permanent downhill trails open. Locally there is mini golf, tennis, Fantasticable zip wire, spa, rafting, horse riding, paragliding and Porsche ice driving. Chalet Etoile is just 1 hour 20 mins from Geneva Airport. 2 minutes from local shops and 10 minutes by car from the large supermarkets in Vinzier and Chatel.
Nearby is the Gorge Pont Diable, a natural gorge and place of beauty and the lakeside pretty towns of Evian les Bains and Yvoirre are just an easy drive away.
There is a large sandy beach on the banks of Lake Geneva at Excenevex and for the more adventurous why not climb the Via Ferrata at la Chapelle d'Abondance or white water raft the river Dranse. Check in time 16h00. Check out time 10h00. For skiing, the nearest lifts are in Abondance (2km).

The last three places are access to Les Portes du Soleil. There is a bus service a few minutes walk from the chalet but they pass every 1 or 2 hours.
Having a car here would be most advantageous to be able to fully appreciate the area. There is a raclette grill and fondue set to prepare traditional french cuisine.
Local shops are under 2km away and large supermarkets are 10-15 minutes away by car in Vinzier and Chatel. If you are visiting in winter, winter tyres and snow chains are necessary (or a 4x4), as the road entrance is quite steep.

Das Charlet ist ideal um beim Skifahren gemütliche Tage zu verbringen. Alles war wunderbar sauber. In der Küche findet man das Wichtigste, was man zum Kochen braucht. Der Ofen macht es kuschelig warm. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Nice house in a quiet area, yet close to the village for restaurants, and not far from ski slopes.
Recommendable!
