Precisions
The Chartreuse massif, located between Chambéry and Grenoble, is a true natural wonder. Accessible by train from these two cities, it offers a perfect setting for lovers of hiking, nature and discoveries. This massif, still preserved and authentic, seduces by its magnificent panoramas, its authentic mountain villages and the mysterious atmosphere that reigns there. This is where Antoine, the co-founder of Belle Allure, chose to live, so he knows a thing or two about it! 🤩
La Chartreuse is a place steeped in spirituality, marked by the presence of the Grande Chartreuse, the monastery founded in the 11th century by Saint Bruno, famous for its austere lifestyle and its famous green liqueur, sold all over the world. 🍸
Chartreuse's landscapes vary between steep cliffs, deep forests and steep peaks. This contrast between the softness of the valleys and the harshness of the mountains gives the massif a unique character. Among the most emblematic peaks, Chameaude, the highest point of the massif at 2082m, is a must, as is the Charmant Som with its 1867m. You will also discover the Hauts de Chartreuse Nature Reserve and you can enjoy local gastronomy every evening with local meats and cheeses. 😋🧀

What type of shoes should I wear?
On our hiking trips, it is strongly recommended to choose shoes adapted to the terrain and the duration of the planned stages.
We recommend high-top shoes that hold the ankle well and are waterproof if possible. The sole must be in good condition and capable of adhering to technical and slippery surfaces.
Finally, and this is probably the most important point: your shoes must have been broken in beforehand, you must feel good from one shoe to the other. We do not recommend that you leave on a stay with completely new shoes.
What size backpack should I choose?
For your hikes, where the main luggage is taken care of by a carrier during the day, we advise you to choose a backpack with a capacity of 30 to 40 liters.
So you can put your things for the day, your picnic, a few snacks, and your water! For optimal comfort, we recommend a backpack with a waist belt, and well adapted to your size and morphology, which you have tested beforehand.
What should I carry in my day bag?
For a hassle-free hike, here's what you need to have in your backpack:
- Water: every hiker Must have at least 1.5 liters of water on him. Think of insulated bottles to keep the water fresh, it's very valuable 🙂
- Picnics and snacks: In the morning, remember to leave with your lunch picnic. If you have chosen the option, the host will give it to you in the morning, either at breakfast or when you leave. Also, remember to have a few snacks, such as cereal bars, fruit pastes, dried fruits, nuts,...
- First aid kit: Just in case, it is always advisable to leave with your first aid kit: bandages, compresses, disinfectants, personal medications,... also think of sunscreen!
- Your mobile phone: Even if the purpose of a hiking trip in nature is to disconnect and enjoy the nature around you, it is necessary to bring your charged mobile phone, and with a portable battery if possible. This will allow you to find your bearings and prevent emergency services in the event of an incident.
What clothes should I wear for the stay? Do I need to provide hot and cold weather?
Good question! Although we still hope that the weather is perfect for your stays (not too hot, not too cold, big blue skies, the dream!) , it's the only thing we can't predict!
The list of clothes to bring will obviously depend on the season, the destination and the altitude at which you will be confronted.
However, we recommend that you always bring clothing that can withstand the following conditions: rain, heat and cold, to avoid any eventuality.
The multi-layer system is the most recommended:
- T-shirt made of breathable material to wick away perspiration
- Light sweater or fleece (useful even in summer when temperatures drop in the evening and at altitude)
- Waterproof jacket (Goretex type) to protect from wind and rain.
For the bottom, bring shorts and pants. In fact, there are 2 in 1.
If your stay takes place at altitude, it is advisable to bring cold accessories, such as gloves, neck warmers and hats.
Finally, in order to protect yourself from the sun, it is essential to have a cap or hat, sunglasses and sunscreen!
It is important to be prepared for cold and hot weather, as well as for bad weather, it is part of the adventure! 😉
