Our Story
Along an old smuggler’s trail to Switzerland and directly under France’s disappearing Glacier de Folly lies a pristine backcountry Alpine farm surrounded by wild rivers, forests and mountains.
We welcome visitors to stay and enjoy the beauty of the natural surrounds and we also showcase how anyone can take steps to help achieve a climate-proof future. You will find a restored Alpine chalet, where electricity and heat are provided by technology delivers heat and power from surrounding forests and where soil health and plant growth are supported by compost, rich in beneficial microorganisms.
