Chalet la Chance - La Tzoumaz, 4 Vallees

Highlights!!! Now with jacuzzi & sauna !!!An incredible opportunity to immerse yourself in the stunning mountain-scape of La Tzoumaz, Chalet la Chance sleeps up to 12 people in 5 large bedrooms. Newly renovated and completely refurnished in 2022, the chalet now features a fabulous 6-seater jacuzzi on the terrace with stunning views, and a sauna.  It's only a few minutes walk from the ski slopes and the summer hiking and mountain-biking trails. You’ll immediately feel the spaciousness of this gorgeous chalet when you enter, as even the entrance areas are generous and welcoming. From the huge double-height glass windows that dominate the living area, or from the comfort of the wide balcony terrace area, the view stretches for 20km across the Rhone Valley and up to the snow-capped peaks beyond. Equally well-situated for summer and winter activities, this is a fabulous year-round chalet in a great location. The sauna and jacuzzi are a real treat at the end of an active day in the mountains.

There is an office area for those unable or unwilling to leave work or social media behind during their stay in the this relaxing chalet.

The entrance hall is a spacious zone to organise all of your mountain sports equipment and ensure that it is warm and dry for the next day of adventures.

RelaxingAfter an exhilarating day on the slopes, a soak in the outdoor jacuzzi or a hot sauna session can ease tired muscles and help you prepare for the next day on the mountain. Alternatively you could take a seat in the impressive living room to sip a glass of local Fendant wine before dinner. Enjoying a traditional fondue or raclette amongst friends or family is a fantastic opportunity to swap stories from the day, before you relax into the sofa to watch the snowflakes drifting lazily past the stunning vista beneath you. For those in need of further distraction there is cable TV in the living room, and a sofa area for quiet reading or playing games upstairs on the open mezzanine area overlooking the living room.

There is a large grassed lawn area to the side of the chalet, ideal for building igloos in winter or soaking up the warm Valaisan sunshine in summer.

In summer this chalet is perfect for relaxing with family or friends, thanks to its large balcony terrace area, with lounge chairs. Coming home from yet another incredible hike on the many trails that wander lazily across the beautiful mountain scenery, you can relax and immerse yourself in the surrounding birdsong as you prepare a delicious outdoor barbecue. In the evening if you step outside onto the balcony that wraps around three sides of the chalet you will almost certainly hear the distinct sounds of cuckoos maybe even spot a golden eagle flying beneath you as it wings across the valley.

InternetChalet la Chance is equipped with free, high-speed WIFI throughout the chalet for your own private use.

PetsWe’re sorry but this is a pet-free property. Please browse our selection of pet-friendly rentals if you would like to travel with your pet.

ParkingThere is a single parking place for one car (maximum 5m long) outside the chalet. For safety reasons, only vehicles with 4x4 that are fitted with 4 winter tyres are permitted to park here in winter, due to steep and snowy access road. Up to three further spaces are available 100m away. Winter tyers and/or chains are recommended to access these spaces in winter due to frequent snowfalls. Alternative parking is available in a large outdoor (free) carpark, 600m from the property. At least one car is recommended when staying in this chalet, but do contact us for railway or airport transfers if some of your group are arriving without a car.

WinterIt is possible for adventurous skiers to to ski-in and ski-out of the chalet - there is a steep 50m climb up through the garden to reach the piste. In fresh snow you will need to make your own path as you climb up. Alternatively, you can walk (or drive) 400m to the main piste that descends into La Tzoumaz (uphill in the morning and downhill in the evening). The modern high-speed telecabin carries you from La Tzoumaz up to the top of the Savoleyres in less than 8 minutes, from where you can decide to ski back on the quiet La Tzoumaz slopes or ski down to Verbier’s legendary slopes and world-class off-piste opportunities in the vast 4-Valleys ski area. Take advantage of our discounted ski lessons and equipment rental during your stay, and the convenience of our in-house skipass printing service.

SummerIn the peak summer season (from early July to late August), we provide you with free VIP pedestrian lift-passes, half-price mountain-bike daypasses and a range of other discounts. The telecabin link to Verbier operates daily at this time of year from 08:45 to 12:30 and from 13:30 to 16:45, meaning that you can easily access the famous resort as a pedestrian, or accompanied by your bicycle or e-bike. For a small supplement you can even use a variety of mountain lifts to make your way up to Mont Fort at 3300m for the highest fondue in Europe and incredible mountain panoramas that include Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn.

In summer, the area turns into a hiking and mountain biking paradise, with hundreds of kilometres of marked trails criss-crossing the mountains, awash with alpine flowers and a range of wildlife to spot. Visit the Maison de la Foret with its wildlife exhibitions and its Five Senses Nature Trail, and the starting point of many beautiful hikes. The Bisses are relatively flat footpaths that follow the water as it trickles around the mountainsides, where for centuries farmers and villagers channelled the streams for their own uses. They have been preserved and can now be an incredible way to spend a day or more on easy hikes with stunning views across the Rhone Valley or over to the Massif des Combins. We will provide you with plenty of tourist information including our favourite suggestions for day trips that are easily reachable from La Tzoumaz, from spectacular gorge walks, cheese factories and roman festivals to rainy-day ideas such as underground lake tours. The road that winds up the mountain-top to the panoramic Croix-de-Coeur Cafe-Restaurant opens as soon as the snow melts and from here you can continue the drive (or cycle) all the way down into Verbier. Try not to miss the Swiss National Celebrations in La Tzoumaz on August 1st, or the famous festival of live music performances, the Verbier Festival, which runs from mid-July to the beginning of August.

For familiesThe centre of La Tzoumaz benefits from an outdoor ice-skating rink in winter, and a children's playground area in summer, with a rope-based agility park alongside more traditional equipment such as slides. A fun channel system with running water is built into the hillside to provide plenty of entertainment for older children too.

At the exit of the village the Domus playground is a fabulous spot, often bathed in late afternoon sunshine, with swings, a zipline, see-saw, climbing frames and even old tractors to clamber on. It is overlooked by an outdoor cafe (check opening hours) providing drinks, snacks and ice-creams. There are rabbits, donkeys, goats, and there is also rock-climbing on the local crag in the background (contact us for equipment and instructors).

The Maison de la Foret has a cafe area for drinks and snacks (check opening hours), wildlife exhibitions and its Five Senses Nature Trail with hands-on activities to borrow such as bird-whistling and learning to draw. The Nature Trail has disabled parking and is accessible to wheelchairs and children's buggies.

Right at the top of the village is the "Defis de la Riviere", which is equipped as an outdoor physical challenge area for older kids on the river. There are sensory walking areas for younger children and a basket swing, and also a picnic spot nearby.

A short drive down the valley takes you to the large lake at the Parc des Iles, with its playgrounds, high-ropes park, minigolf, restaurant, miniature train and more.
