ALS’s roots are in the Alps and with our time on the snow cut short transport yourself back to two of our favourite chalets:
Hibou and Pelerin with Eleven Experience.
We’ve discovered a hidden corner of the French Alps, where the cows still get milked in their pastures and hiking trails wind past centuries-old churches and trapped-in-time hamlets. The Savoie, a nook of France bordering Switzerland to the north and Italy to the east is infused with European charm. In the summer, this region is the ultimate alpine playground. Nestled in the tiny mountain village of Le Miroir, Eleven Experience's Chalet Pelerin & Chalet Hibou are a dream base for exploration. Eleven's local guides know every trail and peak, not to mention the best cafes and picnic spots. By day, choose your own adventure, from paragliding and mountain biking to glacier trekking and whitewater rafting. At night, recharge in the chalet’s freshwater pool, sip wine on the patio, and let our chef introduce you to regional specialties like tartiflette.
Built on top of a tiny French farming village, the Chalets provides 180-degree views of the surrounding Tarentaise Valley. King guest rooms bring the outdoors in, with large windows and balconies. Rooms are named after iconic French Alpine mountains, and the rustic, yet comfortable design reflects local traditions. The Chalets feature rustic-chic interiors inspired by the property’s alpine surroundings and unmatched amenities including indoor pool, steam, sauna, patio hot tubs, outdoor patios overlooking the stunning Tarentaise Valley.
Great food is engrained in French culture so it should be no surprise that meals are a highlight at Eleven’s chalets. A local dairy farmer delivers yogurt to the chalet door each morning to accompany a hearty breakfast spread of muesli, house-made bread, and made-to-order eggs. Fine French cheeses and garden-fresh salads are served for lunch, even in the backcountry. At night, chef Hannah’s menus showcase Savoyarde dishes like pumpkin velouté with the region’s famed Beaufort cheese, Côte de Bouef, and of course, Raclette and fondue. French wines also take center stage, with nightly menu pairings.
This summer we invite you to join you to join us to experience the French Alps in an entirely new way. We hope to welcome you to Chalet Pelerin & Hibou soon.
