Lost Glacier Lodge, a backcountry Alpine hideaway, is surrounded by wilderness and ideal for four seasons adventure, exploration and inspiration in nature.

Located in the hidden valley of Le Latay, directly under the famous Criou peak, we are situated in the heart of exhilarating ski touring and snowshoeing country for winter and ideally placed for walking, hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing and canyoning of all levels in other seasons. Everything is at your doorstep and free to explore.

As night falls, the darkest of skies imaginable unfolds to reveal a carpet of stars and planets dazzling overhead.

Most of all all our Lodge is a place for quiet contemplation and relaxation all the while witnessing undisturbed wild nature. We adjoin the boundaries of the Sixt-Passy Nature Reserve, the largest in Haute Savoie. We are half a day’s hike to high mountain passes to Switzerland, where not too long ago smugglers carried down rucksacks filled with Swiss watches to be sold in the bars of far away Paris for a tidy profit. The smugglers have vanished, but little else appears to have changed in this south facing, isolated valley, to all appearances bypassed by time and progress.

But look closer, (or sign up for one of our regular workshops) to learn how cutting-edge technology (see here),  points towards a climate proof future, when fossil fuel are a thing of the past and forest waste  – sustainably harvested – provides pollution-free power, heat and biochar increasingly seen as the gardener’s friend in boosting plants while slowing global warming.
