The Maison Vieille is located on one of the most important paths that enabled travellers of the past to cross from France to Italy and vice versa. Along the way you have the chance to encounter marmots, falcons, and the lucky ones even deer, chamois and eagles, as well as having one of the most fascinating and spectacular views of the Mont Blanc massif.
Cosy dormitories and relaxing hot showers will give a sense of relief from tiredness. At lunchtime, in addition to formidable hors d'oeuvres and first courses, there is also cuisine on the losa.
