How do I get to the restaurant?
Getting here on foot
Departure from Les Menuires
If you live in the Les Menuires resort, you can get there very easily on foot. From the Bruyères district, go to the Valmont residence, then take the public lift to the Adonis residence car park. Then take the road towards Val Thorens. From this car park to the Chasse car park (the closest to our house), it takes 5 minutes.
Journey time: 40 minutes from the Croisette district, 15 minutes from the Bruyères district
Leaving from Val Thorens
Head towards the bottom of Val Thorens resort, and get to the start of the Cairn gondola and the Boismint chairlift. Then take Boulevard Cumin, towards the bottom of the Belleville valley (about 25 minutes’ walk) as far as Pont de la Chasse. On your right, you’ll see a large sign indicating our mountain chalet. Follow the goat trail on your right (10 minutes), which will take you back to Chez Pépé Nicolas.
Duration of excursion: 1 hour 15 minutes – 1 hour 30 minutes from the resort centre
