The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

A Refuge of Emotions in the Heart of the Alps

Nestled among the untouched wonders of the high Val Veny, above Courmayeur, Cabane du Combal is the perfect sanctuary for those seeking an unforgettable escape in the embrace of nature at the foot of Mont Blanc. Sitting between the picturesque Lake Combal and the majestic Miage Glacier, and woven into the legendary route of the Tour du Mont Blanc, this gem within the Mont Blanc Massif is accessible only on foot — a deliberate invitation to slow down, breathe the pure alpine air, and arrive somewhere truly special.

The journey to reach it is part of the experience. Whether you walk from Courmayeur along the moraine of the Miage Glacier or descend from the Col de la Seigne, every step builds anticipation for the warm hospitality that awaits.

Authentic Alpine Cuisine

The restaurant at Cabane du Combal is a culinary journey through the simple and authentic flavors of the mountains. From polenta with mountain cheeses to homemade desserts, every dish is a heartfelt tribute to the rich gastronomic heritage of the Aosta Valley region. Whether you stop for a nourishing breakfast before hitting the trail, a leisurely lunch, a convivial dinner, or an aperitif with snow-capped peaks as your backdrop, the kitchen serves specialties that warm both heart and soul. The Combal name carries genuine prestige — recognized in 2013 among the World's 50 Best Restaurants — a testament to the culinary vision behind this exceptional destination.

Seven Rooms, Infinite Views

Beyond the table, Cabane du Combal offers seven bright and simply furnished rooms, each designed for groups of three or four guests. Private bathrooms with shower, fresh sheets changed daily, and soft towels ensure complete comfort after a day of hiking and high-altitude adventure. Each morning here is an up-close encounter with alpine nature: crisp, pure air and panoramic views of the surrounding peaks that no alarm clock could ever rival.
