New Bettex piste

Accessible from the areas of the Roc des 3 Marches,the Becca and Saint Martin, the new blue Bettex piste has been specially designed to facilitate access to the Preyerand area. It not only simplifies the return on skis to this area, but also reduces the density of skiers and non-skiers at the bottom of the pistes at La Croisette.

Creation of a DVA Park

So that off-piste enthusiasts can practice searching for avalanche victims, a DVA park will be installed at the top of the Roc des 3 Marches gondola. The DVA (an Avalanche Victim Detector) is a vital security tool for all those who leave the marked ski area, and it is essential to know how to use it effectively with a shovel and probe.

Oenological evenings, to delight the palate!

With a superb cellar of 1000 references, La Bouitte has already distinguished itself by creating innovative oenological events (analysis of the influence of altitude on wine tasting ...). La Bouitte will organise meals based on the theme “the greatest wines in the world”. An exceptional grower or winemaker will be invited to present a selection of his greatest achievements. These events will revolve around a series of food and wine marriages. An opportunity to sample not only famous great wines, but also to reveal some future "greats as well as less known vintages. And to understand how a culinary composition is transcended by a wine, and vice versa.
The programme of the first events :
- 20th December 2012 : Carte blanche is given to Dr. Alain RAYNARD, President of the Cercle Rive Droite in Bor-deaux, a famous winemaker with more than twenty prestigious Domaines. Theme: how to use knowledge and modern techniques to produce great wines with charm and balance.
- 16th January 2013 : The Savoy, a region capable of creating both ready to drink wines and wine for ageing. Far from certain prejudices, a few Houses have chosen a high quality and strong identity. Their wines compete eas-ily with the great wines of the Rhône Valley. Spotlight on Louis Magnin.
- 6th February 2013 : . Discovery of the historic Burgundy House of Louis Jadot. An exceptional event in honour of the extraordinary winemaker, Jacques LARDIERE. Retired now, after 40 years of developing a very natural and elegant approach to land, he will comment, with his unique flair and verve, a few of his favourites wines.
- 25th March 2013 : The Renaissance of Alsace, an exceptional natural and cultural heritage, transcended by Jean-Michel Deiss. Or how the predominance given to land, and the reasoned choice of closely planted vines , has produced some of the greatest white wines in the world.
Tariff: 150 € per person, including a 4 course meal and all the wines. www.la-bouitte.com—Tel. +33 (0)4 79 08 96 77
