Accommodation

Set in 34,000 m² of unspoilt nature in Champéry, La Chotte du Musher welcomes you to a farmhouse built in 1900 that has kept all its charm. No over-modernisation here: the three simple, rustic guest rooms offer a timeless break, lulled by the sounds of the forest and the cool Alpine nights.

​

In summer, set off on foot or by bike straight from the farm to iconic spots such as the Sauflaz waterfall, the magical Barme valley or the mountain huts of the Tour des Dents-du-Midi. On site, several relaxation areas and a mini treetop course for children complete the experience.

​

In winter, the ski lifts are just 200 metres away and a cross-country ski trail 100 metres away, for a complete Nordic experience.

​

Additional services on site:

• Light meals on reservation: raclette, fondue, Champéry platter

• Soft and alcoholic drinks for sale

• Dogs welcome on request (CHF 30 supplement)

• Free parking in front of the farm (summer) or nearby (winter)

Practical information

On site, you will be living right next to our husky pack, in the authentic atmosphere of our old farmhouse.

The main building has kept its original character and is not heated. The rooms, however, have been renovated and are of course heated. This is still an old mountain building: in winter, please bring warm, suitable clothing so you can enjoy your stay in comfort.

Our rooms are designed for short stays. They are rooms, not apartments: there is no kitchen and no equipment for fully self-catered living.

Depending on our schedule and activities, it is not always possible to have a meal at La Chotte du Musher. The village of Champéry, with its restaurants, shops and services, is about 1 km away.

Our dogs are generally calm. They can, however, be more vocal at the start and end of the day, especially when we come to feed and care for them. This is part of kennel life and of the experience of staying at the heart of our pack.

Our heated “LE CUBE” lounge is at your disposal during your stay. It is a shared, friendly space, also used by visitors taking part in our husky activities.

Our first activities start at 9 am with the screening of an introductory film in LE CUBE. If you choose to have breakfast after 9 am, you will therefore share the space with our visitors from time to time. This is all part of the lively, authentic atmosphere of a stay at Alpes'Huskies.

 

Motorhomes

From May to October, we also offer two pitches (without services) for motorhomes (electricity, bathroom and equipped kitchen area available at extra cost). And to extend the adventure with our dogs: the motorhome pitch is free for 24 hours when you book an activity with our huskies. ​​​​​​
