The Rascard is located within the Montagnayes nature reserve; here, among deer, chamois and foxes you will have the opportunity to experience a unique stay. Far from mass tourism and crowds, surrounded by unspoiled nature, excursions for all levels, trekking, cross-country skiing, biathlon, ski mountaineering and snowshoe walks await you. The warmth of the wood stove and the stone and wood walls will embrace you on your return. The Chalet has a modern, fully equipped kitchen with fridge, dishwasher and induction hobs. Next to the rascard there is also a mountain restaurant with typical dishes of the Aosta Valley tradition and a menu that is always varied, simple and genuine. ## Property amenities ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby ### Internet -

The restaurant is very good serving local dishes. The main floor you enter via the front door is the TV room then the Kitchen bathroom and bedroom is downstairs and upstairs is another full bath and bedroom. Our host was very responsive . ##### Deborah W.

De woning is klein maar praktisch ingericht met mooie moderne keuken en badkamers. Goede bedden. Door het beperkt aantal kleine ramen is het binnen vrij donker., maar er is een ruim terras met prachtig uitzicht. ##### Eugene R.

Siamo stati benissimo sia nella baita che nel ristorante adiacente, posto che ci ha stupito con preparazioni inusuali per un posto di montagna. Che dire, consiglio a tutti di trascorrere qualche giorno in questa località! per staccare dalla confusione della città è il posto ideale ##### Massimo P. ---
