mountain suitable for people with reduced mobility

The benefits of PMR holidays in the mountains

Because at Pointe de Sel, our stays are 100% nature, 100% local, but also 100% sharing, we welcome all ages, all tribes, and all audiences! Pointe de sel offers PRM holidays for families with a person with reduced mobility.

Persons with Reduced Mobility (PRM) often encounter difficulties when it comes to booking their holidays, and many points need to be checked: suitable accommodation, activities and trained service providers, transport, care... All these off-putting elements are not not for Pointe de Sel : in order not to exclude anyone, we have thought of everyone!

A Savoyard chalet 100% adapted to PMR holidays

We are pleased to offer a stay 100% adapted to People with Reduced Mobility, thanks to a chalet completely equipped for this public: Les Tarines. It is located in La Chenal, a hamlet located between Bourg Saint Maurice and Les Arcs, in Haute Tarentaise.

This charming locality, made up of around ten houses, is a real haven of peace offering a breathtaking view of the valley and the Beaufortain mountains. Located at nearly 1300 meters above sea level, the village benefits from the advantages of the mountain air, a rejuvenating calm, great exposure to the sun, and an exceptional panorama.

Les Tarines is a chalet specially designed to accommodate families with a person with reduced mobility. It offers on the ground floor a spacious twin bedroom with its wheelchair-accessible shower room, 3 other double bedrooms and a 6-bed dormitory. An elevator leads to the large living room which is located on level +1.

This one, bright and offering an idyllic view of the mountains, consists of a large living space (open kitchen, dining room, living room) where there is plenty of space, and where the layout of the elements allows optimal circulation. in a wheelchair.

A sauna, whose health benefits are numerous (stimulation of blood circulation, relief of rheumatism, strengthening of immune defences) completes the equipment.

Accessible activities for PRM holidays and original summer version…

PRM holidays are not limited to accommodation, Pointe de Sel has also designed a program adapted to people with reduced mobility, so that they can enjoy the benefits of the mountain air with complete peace of mind!

In summer, we offer paragliding trips in complete safety. Thanks to a specific harness, the flight can take place serenely and comfortably. The instructors are specially trained for this type of equipment and flight. All you have to do is let yourself be carried away in the air, open your eyes and lungs wide, and discover the mountain from a unique point of view...

To also make discover the mountain to all, Pointe de Sel has identified many walks accessible to People with Reduced Mobility. The mountain is not always synonymous with slope and elevation, and it is quite possible to find flat paths, even at altitude! The advantage of this is also to be able to reduce the mechanical stresses at the osteo-articular level, which are often limiting.

For example, let yourself be guided to the Col de la Chal which culminates at 2600 meters above sea level in the Les Arcs area. The Transarc gondola, wheelchair accessible from Arc 1800, will take you there in just under 15 minutes. The trip alone is worth the detour, and its cumulative drop of 837 meters is a real spectacle!

Once up there, let your gaze wander between the Aiguille Grive, the Haute Tarentaise valley, the Bellecôté glacier near La Plagne, the sites of Arc 2000 and Arc 1950, and of course, Mont Blanc , the backdrop for this breathtaking spectacle. From the Col de la Chal you can reach the bottom of the Grand Col chairlift in a few hundred flat meters, and enjoy another view of the surrounding peaks.

Pointe de Sel also offers more rural walks, near the valley. For example, the Vergers de la Ballastières path, within the Vanoise National Park, is a delight in itself. During the walk (about 45 minutes) on this accessible and landscaped path, discover the memory and awareness of a natural heritage: the varieties of apples. Still very present on the hillsides of villages and hamlets, this local culture is a must in Savoie!

For more relaxing moments, we also offer horse-drawn carriage rides. Let yourself be guided by Jacques, in love with the Savoyard territory, its heritage, and passionate about nature. He will know how to make you discover unexpected paths, with multiple anecdotes. Guaranteed favorite for Jacques and his horses!

…and PRM holidays also in winter

In winter, skiing is also practiced for people with reduced mobility! Pointe de Sel offers outings in ski chairs piloted by people specially trained to accompany people with physical, mental or sensory disabilities. Some ski lifts in the Les Arcs area are suitable for this chair, and thus allow you to discover one of the largest ski areas in Europe: Paradiski! The members of the association with which we work, Handi'Arcs, are committed to sharing their love for the mountains with as many people as possible, and do their utmost to make these moments on the slopes unforgettable.

Services designed for exceptional PRM holidays

At Pointe de Sel, we are aware of the importance of being well surrounded when you are a Person with Reduced Mobility. This is why we suggest during your all-inclusive mountain stay a list of caregivers who can accompany you when you wish (nurses, physiotherapists, masseur, etc.)!
