A genuine mountain restaurant offering traditional and local cuisine and much more! Fresh seasonal produce and other products. At L'Avalanche, stop for a quick break and enjoy the slope-side views! Enjoy the vast outdoor patio and warm indoor dining room at the foot of the La Sambuy ski resort.
Spend time around the wood stove in a warm and friendly atmosphere, or outside on the patio with fantastic panoramic views and discover our delicious local cuisine.
Enjoy any of our delightful meals or a cheese speciality made with authentic farmhouse cheese.
Thanks to the never-ending passion of local farmers working the soil in a well-preserved all-natural environment, we are lucky to work with high-quality authentic local produce in our dishes in order to delight your taste buds.
In an ideal location at the foot of the La Sambuy ski resort, facing the chairlift and the year round toboggan, enjoy this beautiful mountain setting for a lovely gourmet break.
Upon request, we can organise any event or private evening party, as well as a fun-filled activity before your meal (snowshoeing, a day mountain biking, ski touring...). Just contact us!
