Living the high life

Cabane Tortin, enhanced at 3,000 m

Suspended above the glacier

Release

Members of the Nendaz ski club remember the Cabane Tortin in its original condition, glacial drafts included! No more. The new luxury version, powered by solar panels and a pellet burner, was designed by Norwegian architecture firm Snorre Stinessen in collaboration with local architects. Its forward-thinking construction features very modern, long picture windows that seem to float in thin air — but, more precisely, hover over the drop of the Tortin Glacier. Booked on a bespoke and personal basis, it has four rooms that boast 4-star-level comfort, a large panoramic living room with a fireplace, and a sauna. It even offers private chef services, ski guides and staff. A truly unique experience.
