02By taking action

ZERO WASTE AREA

You want to throw away your rubbish but don't see any bins on the horizon, that's normal! A rubbish bin outside and at altitude makes no sense.
On the one hand, the weather conditions at altitude can be capricious and this would result in waste flying in all directions.
On the other hand, we would have to mobilise several groomers every day to collect the waste.
The best solution is you! By carrying your own waste in your pockets or backpack, you limit the impact on our environment.
And if you are really looking for a rubbish bin, go to one of the indoor break areas designed by the domain: Pré St Esprit, Marmottes and Vallandry!

MOBILITY

When I come to the area, I favour low-carbon public transport such as the funicular, the train, the bus or I try to car-share.

ACCOMMODATION

We rent well insulated accommodation and we examine how much energy the apartments use.
I don’t heat my accommodation above 19° by day and 17° in the evening is enough for a good night’s sleep!
I sort and recycle my waste during my holidays and I pay attention to my impact.

BETTER TO EAT AND DRINK LOCAL PRODUCE

I choose local and seasonal produce in the supermarket and in restaurants.
I take care not to waste food, I can use the too good to go app and become flexitarian.
I drink local, the tap water is drinkable and I avoid plastic bottles by refilling my water canteen.

SKI EQUIPMENT

I dress sustainably and choose second-hand clothes or rent them. If I only ski occasionally, I rent skis
