Located at the foot of the Dômes de Miage and the Tré-la-Tête Glacier. 2.5 hours from Les Contamines. Panoramic terrace, traditional cuisine, a variation on the Tour du Mont-Blanc. Starting point for hikes to La Bérangère, Le Tondu, and the Dômes de Miage. Easy access for families.
The Tré-la-Tête mountain refuge also provides meals! All our accommodation packages include half-board (dinner and breakfast)*. We also offer lunch, packed picnics to take away and, of course, drinks and light snacks throughout the day. Our cuisine showcases our local produce and regional specialities. Our dishes are inspired by Savoyard culinary traditions and we try – as far as possible – to use fresh, locally sourced ingredients. We take great care over what we put on your plates. However, as our kitchen is situated at an altitude of almost 2,000 metres, we do have to work within these constraints. *: no exceptions Local specialities: Fondue, tartiflette, salads, soup, delicatessen & omelettes.
