What a perfect few days filled with 5 yoga sessions with the amazing Tess from Alpine yoga with Tess, parapenting, hiking, and plenty og healthy eating (including a fabulous night out at le 8M des monts) and of course plenty of laughs – not even the rain showers could dampen the spirits of our ladies!

Whilst there is still plenty of skiing to be had before the 2022-23 season draws to a close its still never too early to benefit from the glorious Spring sunshine and the stunning scenery from the saddle of a bike!

With that in mind (plus the incentive of a Sunday morning coffee in the sun) we unpacked our cycle gear, dusted-off the road bikes and tried to remember how to unclip our cleats before falling off!

A little chilly in the shade at first but we warmed to the occasion and were soon working-up a sweat just to keep-up with ‘lead-out’ man Paul. 

Given it was our first outing of the season we took the 13km ride from the chalet, along the valley floor through the village of Sixt Fer-à-Cheval, to the Cirque de Fer-à-Cheval in the Sixt-Passy National Park. 

Always a beautiful ride regardless of the season and we were rewarded with blue-skies and snow (as well as that  coffee on the way home!)

Many thanks to all the ladies that joined our September yoga retreat and made it such a success. In addition to enjoying their 5-yoga sessions out on the terrace with the fantastic Tess, judging by the photos we’ve received of people’s memories of the weekend then the other highlights from include:

  • The stunning beauty of the Sixt Passy Natural Reserve and the Cirque du Fer a Cheval
